Description
Whether you're a boater, property owner, fisherman, paddler, whitewater rafter, or someone who works or lives near the water, Rivercast™ makes it easy to see exactly what's happening on the rivers that matter to you.
Rivercast includes: • Official flood warnings and alerts from the National Weather Service • River stage height in feet • River flow rate in CFS (when available) • Color indicators showing when a river is normal, rising, or flooding • Current observations and recent history • Custom push notification alerts when a river reaches your chosen level (premium feature) • NOAA river forecasts (when available) • Interactive Map showing all nearby river gauges • Search by waterway name, state, or NOAA 5-digit station ID • Interactive Graphs with pinch-to-zoom and pan • Add your own reference lines for landmarks or safety levels • Favorites list for quick access to your key locations • Share your graphs via Text, Email, Facebook, etc. • Dark Theme support • Home Screen Widget to monitor your favorite locations at any time.
Rivercast’s map not only shows where gauges are located, but color-codes them to indicate whether each station is at normal levels, approaching flood stage, or above flood stage.
Tap any location to view the latest observations or open an interactive graph for detailed trends. Pinch or drag to zoom and pan, or tap and hold for precise readings using the crosshair tool.
Customize your hydrographs with personal level markers for bridges, sandbars, rocks, or safe navigation levels. Add favorite gauges for quick monitoring anytime.
Rivercast uses official NOAA observation and forecast data and requires an internet connection for data access. Data is displayed in feet or cubic feet per second (CFS) when available, always shown in your local time.
A trusted tool for boaters, fishermen, property owners, paddlers, scientists, and marine professionals who need clear, reliable river information.
River gauges reported are USA only.
We take our accuracy seriously!

Some Frequently Asked Questions:
Where does Rivercast get its data? This app uses NOAA sources for its raw data for our custom graphing and mapping solutions. Some locations available only from other agencies (such as USGS) may not appear in this app.
Why does Rivercast sometimes show slightly different flow data (CFS) than USGS? CFS is a calculated estimate derived from stage height. NOAA and USGS may sometimes use different data models, so results can vary slightly—usually within a few percent. Stage height should always identical between NOAA and USGS, and designated flood stages are usually based on height in feet.
Why does Rivercast only show observations, but not forecasts, for my river? NOAA provides forecasts for many, but not all, monitored rivers. Some forecasts are seasonal or only issued during high-water events.
My river gauge was there yesterday, but it’s gone today. Why? River gauges occasionally have technical issues transmitting data or may even be washed out during flooding. Some are also seasonal. NOAA typically restores data within a few days or weeks.
Can you add location XYZ to your app? We wish we could! If NOAA doesn’t report data for that location, we unfortunately can’t include it. Rivercast displays all stations that NOAA provides for public use.

Comments on Rivercast - River Levels App for Android
★★★★★Shawn Carter· Sep 5, 2024
Love the app it has helped me out a lot with flooding in my area but also helps me when planning kayaking or river fishing trips. Nice easy to use interactive map. It been nice if the app had forecast data for the rivers in my area. It would also be nice to have two or 3 favorites on the free version instead of only 1 before your forced to upgrade to have unlimited. That all being said it's a great well-built app a must-have if you live in a flood zone I will be upgrading to premium subscription.
★★★★★John Davis· Oct 17, 2022
Easy and informative to understand the ups and downs of river levels. I had no idea a river changed its level so quickly.
★★★★★Richard J Swartz· Feb 13, 2024
wow how amazing to watch the water levels in the 2 Rivers... around my area.
★★☆☆☆Alvin Kmiec· Apr 10, 2024
You don't the forecast run which is needed badly on this. If you could give that I will upgrade the star level. Having a cattle ranch forecast run is needed.
★★☆☆☆Amy Armstrong· Apr 21, 2026
I'm sorry, but I think this app is way too confusing and I don't understand how to read it. Call me stupid, but that's my opinion. Plus it tells me something different from the person who recommended this app to me. So now we are both a bit confused.
★☆☆☆☆Ben Watson· Apr 26, 2026
Downloaded this for all of two minutes before uninstalling. Constant pressure to subscribe while simply adjusting the hydrograph, missing usgs gage stations on major waterways, it allowed me to set one favorite, and then told me I would need to subscribe to add anymore. I guess it's cool if you always want to go to the same spot, and assuming that the correct gage will even show up. All this information is free from USGS, and since this interface is bloated adware, I'll just go look there
