Mud River At Palermo reservoir
Mud River At Palermo
Mud River is a 67-mile-long tributary of the Guyandotte River, located in western West Virginia. The river has a rich history, as it was once used by Native Americans for fishing and hunting. In the early 1900s, the river was used for transportation of coal and timber. The hydrology of Mud River is heavily influenced by its surrounding terrain, which is characterized by steep slopes and narrow valleys. The river is fed by runoff from the surrounding mountains, as well as snowmelt in the winter months. The river provides water for agricultural purposes, and is also popular for recreational activities such as fishing and kayaking. Despite its importance, the river faces threats from pollution and erosion, highlighting the need for conservation efforts.

About Mud River At Palermo
Where does the data for Mud River At Palermo come from?
Daily storage, pool elevation, and release rates are sourced from USGS, USBR, and USACE monitoring stations. Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
Storage observations are updated daily by the operating agency. The 15-day weather forecast refreshes throughout the day. Snoflo caches and renders the most recent observation -- check the "as of" timestamp on the storage card.
What does the Hazard hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card above for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this reservoir, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.
