Download flood stage thresholds from NWS (National Weather Service). Use when determining flood levels for USGS stations, accessing action/minor/moderate/major flood stages, or matching stations to their flood thresholds.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# NWS Flood Thresholds Guide ## Overview The National Weather Service (NWS) maintains flood stage thresholds for thousands of stream gages across the United States. These thresholds define when water levels become hazardous. ## Data Sources ### Option 1: Bulk CSV Download (Recommended for Multiple Stations) ``` https://water.noaa.gov/resources/downloads/reports/nwps_all_gauges_report.csv ``` ### Option 2: Individual Station Pages ``` https://water.noaa.gov/gauges/<station_id> ``` Example: `https://water.noaa.gov/gauges/04118105` ## Flood Stage Categories | Category | CSV Column | Description | |----------|------------|-------------| | Action Stage | `action stage` | Water level requiring monitoring, preparation may be needed | | **Flood Stage (Minor)** | **`flood stage`** | **Minimal property damage, some public threat. Use this to determine if flooding occurred.** | | Moderate Flood Stage | `moderate flood stage` | Structure inundation, evacuations may be needed | | Major Flood Stage | `major flood stage` | Extensive damage, significant evacuations required | For general flood detection, use the `flood stage` column as the threshold. ## Downloading Bulk CSV ```python …

How to install
mdr add benchflow-ai/benchflow/nws-flood-thresholds@sha256:f0a534dad20748e0The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260610.e2a435f, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
