Skywatch VB turns flood data into neighborhood guidance
A Virginia Beach resource that translates NOAA tide gauges and National Weather Service alerts into street-level flood-risk information, while gathering local events and mutual-aid activity.
Field notes
The project combines official measurements with local context: its flood-risk explanation is described as using NOAA tide gauges, National Weather Service alerts, and reports of where neighbors have flooded before. The homepage also displays a 3.1-foot Sewells Point reading and links flood information to forums, events, volunteer requests, and mutual aid. Address-based threshold alerts are presented as available, although the extracted page does not show the setup or results screens.
