An interesting website providing river information and data in real time. The information is updated 35 minutes past the hour, every 30 minutes, 24 hours per day. Data is provided from an extensive network of monitoring sites. Even though these sites measure river and rainfall information continually, the times at which data is downloaded from remote sites may range in period between once every 30 minutes to once every 12 hours.

The Yazoo River Basin, Mississippi’s largest basin, drains an area of about 13,355 square miles. The basin covers all or parts of 30 counties and is about 200 miles in length and up to 100 miles in width in its northern half. Major streams include the Yazoo, Tallahatchie, Yalobusha, Coldwater, Bogue Phalia, Yocona, and Sunflower Rivers.
