What this checks

NWS alerts for your pin: active flash-flood watches, warnings, and flood advisories from api.weather.gov — the official word.
Rain on the way: NWS forecast rainfall for the next 48 hours at your location, in 6-hour blocks.
Nearby creeks: live USGS streamgage heights near your pin, and how much they've risen in the last 6 hours.

Awareness, not a warning. This tool helps you think ahead — it never replaces official NWS warnings or local authorities. If authorities say move, move.

Never drive through flooded roads — 6 inches of water can knock you down, 12 inches floats a car. Turn around, don't drown.
Avoid low-water crossings, dry washes, and slot canyons when rain is forecast upstream.
At night you can't see rising water — camp on high ground, never in a wash.
