USGS station readings

Live station water levels

Filter by county and measurement type. Stage/gage height is a station-specific elevation relative to that gauge's datum, so use it for local trend context rather than direct cross-station comparison.

Updated Jul 10, 11:07 PM EDT
Water stage: Water surface height relative to each station's local gauge datum. Useful for local trend context, not direct station-to-station comparison.
County drought status will appear once data loads.
County analysis will appear once station data loads.

Public system lookup

Search EPA SDWIS records by Florida public water system ID or system name. Results show compliance history, not live tap-water quality.

Source notes: USGS and SFWMD real-time hydrologic records can be provisional. EPA SDWIS records describe reported public-water-system compliance and violations, not instant household tap-water safety. SFWMD DBHydro can be added once API credentials are available.
