Active weather warnings for Indiana

# Indiana Natural Disaster Report - August 2, 2026

Northern Indiana is experiencing significant flooding threats due to excessive rainfall from slow-moving thunderstorms. A Flood Watch remains in effect until 5:00 PM EDT across 13 northern counties including Adams, Allen, Blackford, De Kalb, Grant, Huntington, Jay, Miami, Noble, Steuben, Wabash, Wells, and Whitley counties, with additional rainfall of 1-3 inches expected to compound already-fallen precipitation. Flood Advisories are currently active for Allen and Wells counties, with Fort Wayne, Middletown, Zanesville, and surrounding areas experiencing minor flooding in low-lying and poor drainage areas. Along Lake Michigan shores in La Porte and Porter counties, dangerous beach conditions persist with waves reaching 4-7 feet, strong rip currents, and longshore currents creating life-threatening swimming conditions through Monday morning. Residents should avoid flooded roadways, stay away from beaches, and monitor weather updates closely as conditions continue through the afternoon.

Compare the statewide percent-of-normal on this page: above 100% means Indiana rivers are running higher than the seasonal average for the date, below 100% means lower (a dry spell or drought). Each gauge also shows its own percent of median.

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.
