#streamgauge
@cnn.com @jaketapper.bsky.social #USGS has around 750 stream gauges on #Texas rivers. They had recently lost a lot of funding from #DOGE cuts and the #BigBeautifulBill also has extra cuts to the #USGS #Streamgauge Team, including Texas.

Meanwhile, here's the current BOM streamgauge status map. See many red triangles there?

(Red == 'major flooding', which the BOM assesses on infrastructure impact, not flood magnitude / frequency. 'Major' means the highway is cut, or some houses have water in them.)

The water year also aligns nicely with patterns in streamflow. It captures the gradual increase in runoff throughout the spring, followed by summertime peak, then the gradual decline in late summer/early fall. [6/7]

@cnn.com #JessicaDean Totally disagree with guest. #USGS streamgauge teams work with #FEMA ,not only quick,but before disasters even happen.The StreamGauge team has been cut and will get cut more under BBB. Having people watching these gauges spike well ahead of flood, would have changed the outcome
