WaterWatch -- Maps and graphs of current water resources conditions

The local creeks and rivers seemed a little high for this time of year to me. So I went looking for data that might tell me whether my hunch was right or not.

And that's how I found this wonderful resource for streamflows in the United States. You can click on the map for particulars for an area.

And, yes, I was right (for a change). Our streamflows in this part of Oregon are higher than normal right now.

But, yikes, the Eastern seaboard looks dry, overall. And California, for the most part, looks quite wet indeed...
