TVA lakes (Guntersville, Wheeler, Wilson, Pickwick) and Alabama Power lakes (Weiss, Neely Henry, Logan Martin, Lay, Mitchell, Jordan, Martin, Smith, Harris and the rest) publish their levels on the operators’ own sites, which could not be read here; no figure is printed for them.

Alabama water level questions
How many Alabama lakes have a live USGS level here?
3; USGS runs few lake gauges in Alabama.
Why are TVA and Alabama Power lake levels missing?
Those operators publish levels on their own sites, which block or script-load the data, so no level is printed rather than a stale one.
Are Corps of Engineers levels shown?
No; the Corps water data service disallows automated reading.
Where are river flows?
On each river page with a USGS gauge, as discharge and gauge height; 52 river pages have one.
What datum do the NOAA readings use?
NOAA reports these Gulf readings in feet above mean lower low water (MLLW).
Where can I get Mobile Bay tide times?
From the NOAA prediction station links above; each coast page also links its nearest station.
How fresh are the NOAA readings?
They are dated readings taken when the page was built; the station link has the live graph.
Does the level page cover the Tennessee River?
Through any USGS river gauge on it; the TVA pool readings are not available here.
