Active weather warnings for Alabama

# Alabama Natural Disaster Alert

A Flood Warning remains in effect for the Paint Rock River near Woodville, affecting Marshall, Jackson, and Madison Counties in north Alabama. As of 2:00 AM CDT Tuesday, water levels reached 19.0 feet, significantly exceeding the 12.0-foot bankfull stage and 15.0-foot flood stage. Moderate flooding is currently occurring with Alabama State Route 65 submerged approximately two miles north of U.S. Highway 72, and multiple county roads in Paint Rock Valley are flooded, including Jackson County Road 20. While the river is expected to gradually recede into minor flood status over the next couple of days, residents in affected areas should avoid flooded roadways and exercise caution. The warning remains in effect until further notice.

About Alabama streamflow

Where does the Alabama streamflow data come from?

The U.S. Geological Survey National Water Information System. USGS streamgauges report continuously (every 15 minutes) and the data is the canonical real-time record for U.S. rivers. Snoflo pulls the latest readings and joins them to a 7-day NOAA weather forecast for each station.

What is cfs?

Cubic feet per second — the standard unit for streamflow. One cfs is about 7.5 gallons per second. Small creeks run at single-digit cfs; the Mississippi at hundreds of thousands.

What does Gauge Height mean?

The water level at the gauge in feet above the reference datum. Used together with discharge to track river state. Flood stage and runnable levels are typically expressed in gauge height (e.g., "flood at 16 ft").

How fresh is the Alabama data?

USGS streamgauges report every 15 minutes; Snoflo re-pulls throughout the day. The AI briefing regenerates daily.

Can I get a flow alert for a Alabama gauge?

Yes. Save any USGS gauge as a favorite in the Snoflo iOS app, set a discharge or stage threshold (e.g. "alert me when discharge crosses 2,000 cfs"), and you'll get a push the moment it crosses.

Is this a substitute for an NWS flood warning?

No. Snoflo is informational. For flood life-safety decisions always follow guidance from your local NWS forecast office and state emergency management. Snoflo data is one input among several.
