Active weather warnings for Wisconsin
# Wisconsin Natural Disaster Alert Summary
Wisconsin is currently experiencing a dual natural disaster threat combining dangerous heat and severe air quality degradation. Heat Advisories are in effect across the state today through evening, with heat index values reaching 103°F in southeast Wisconsin (Milwaukee, Madison areas) and 100°F in northeast Wisconsin (Green Bay region), creating significant heat illness risks. Simultaneously, a statewide Air Quality Alert extends through Thursday noon due to wildfire smoke from Minnesota and Ontario advancing southward. The heaviest smoke impacts, potentially reaching hazardous levels, are expected across northwest Wisconsin communities near Lake Superior, with smoke reaching the La Crosse-Janesville line by Wednesday night and statewide impact by Thursday morning. Sensitive groups, people with asthma or heart disease, and children should avoid outdoor activities, keep relief medications accessible, and seek immediate medical attention if experiencing palpitations, shortness of breath, or unusual fatigue. Monitor air quality updates at airquality.wi.gov.

Flow report FAQ
About Wisconsin streamflow
Where does the Wisconsin 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 Wisconsin 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 Wisconsin 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.
