As a captain on the major rivers in the U.S. I rely on river stages every day, multiple times a day. I have used a different app for 10+ years, but I found this app a couple months ago because the other one has become so unreliable. I love this one. The layout is easier to use, and it loads 3x faster than my old one. I've already recommended Rivercast to several other captains!

Users can configure 4 levels of personalized permanent reference values for water levels to display on graph such as flood stage levels for property owners, or Too High-High-Med-Low levels for activities such as fishing or kayaking. Can set notifications for official flood stage actionable levels or multiple personalized levels.
