Active weather warnings for Indiana

# Indiana Natural Disaster Report

Indiana residents are currently facing multiple environmental hazards requiring immediate attention. A Heat Advisory is in effect for southwest Indiana until Tuesday evening, with heat index values reaching 105-110°F posing serious heat illness risks. Simultaneously, Air Quality Action Days remain in effect statewide through midnight tonight due to dangerously high PM 2.5 particulate levels from wildfire smoke affecting Indianapolis, northern Indiana, and surrounding regions. Sensitive groups—including children, active adults, and those with respiratory conditions like asthma—should limit outdoor exposure. The public is urged to keep windows and doors closed, avoid strenuous outdoor activity, reduce vehicle emissions by carpooling or using public transit, and refrain from using gasoline-powered equipment until after 7 PM. Monitor IDEM's smog watch page for updates as conditions persist through the week.

Flow report FAQ

About Indiana streamflow

Where does the Indiana 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 Indiana 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 Indiana 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.
