How do you use sensor data to view flooding information?
StormSense Windy App currently shows water level data with rich weather data from Windy and gives the ability to click on a water level sensor to display the current information. Double clicking on the same location will provide dropdown panel to select a specified period of time the real-time water graphs.
Example – This was a recent trip to Lotus Creek on Sandbridge Road in Virginia Beach. It was a sunny but windy day on April 13, 2020. It has rained the day before. I used the app to check the water level and saw the water was above the action stage (shown by the yellow line on the chart. I drove to the location to confirm and took pictures at the time. Public Works was closing the road due the flooding at that time.
StormSense Windy App – Sensors in yellow showing Action Flood Stage A click on the sensor shows the location, current water level , date and source. Double Click at the same location to see the chart The chart shows the water level on that day above action stage and then going down Lotus Creek Flooding (4/13/2020) Lotus Creek Flooding (4/13/2020) Lotus Creek Flooding (4/13/2020) Lotus Creek Flooding (4/13/2020)
Several sensors listed here provide water levels, several other parameters and are listed by source.
