Hanalei River Gauge

Is the Hanalei River up? Check the gauge, the road and the forecast in one place before you head to the North Shore of Kauai.

Hanalei River Gauge reads the USGS stream gauge on the Hanalei River (site 16103000) and shows you the level at a glance, with the National Weather Service's alerts and forecast for Kauai North and a live road cam.

HANALEI RIVER
• The current river level in feet, updated every 15 minutes
• A clear status against the 5 ft flood stage: Normal, Elevated, Near flood stage or Flood stage
• Whether the river is rising, falling or steady, and by how much over the last hour
• A chart of recent readings with the flood stage marked
• Discharge (cubic feet per second) and the tide
• A clear warning when the USGS equipment stops reporting, so an old reading is never mistaken for a new one

ROAD CAM
• A live video stream so you can see conditions for yourself

WEATHER
• Active National Weather Service alerts for Kauai North (flood watches, flash flood warnings and more) shown first, where you can't miss them
• The 7-period forecast for Hanalei
• The forecasters' Area Forecast Discussion from the NWS Honolulu office, for when you want the detail

ALL RIVERS
• Levels and status for the other rivers and streams the app tracks, in one list

BUILT FOR EVERYONE

A NOTE ON SAFETY
This app reports what the river gauge reads against the published flood stage. It cannot see the road, and it is not an official warning service. Always follow National Weather Service warnings, county road closures and the instructions of emergency officials. Turn around, don't drown.

Not a government app. Hanalei River Gauge is an independent app made by Onosol LLC. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting for the U.S. Geological Survey, the National Weather Service, NOAA, the State of Hawaiʻi, or any other government entity.
