Gages Supported by the Susquehanna Flood Forecast and Warning System

Data collected by rain and stream gages, installed and maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey, are transmitted via satellite to a ground station in Wallops Island, VA. From there, the data is sent to the National Weather Service's Middle Atlantic River Forecast Center in State College, PA, where it is combined with rain gage and reservoir data from the Baltimore District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

The National Weather Service forecast offices in State College, PA and Binghamton, NY use the information to alert emergency management agencies, the news media, and the general public.
