Watch Duty, the wildfire tracking app, is expanding to floods.
The non-profit service that millions of people relied on during the wildfires in Los Angeles last year will now track flooding nationwide. Users can get information on river gauges, precipitation data, and active warnings, and during life-threatening events, Watch Duty’s live reporting team will report back on hazards like dam/levee failures and downed bridges. Flood and wildfire tracking is available for free and with no ads.
