Right now
The most recent data we hold from NOAA arrived this minute, and this point is not in it. We record detections, not passes: an absence is not proof that nothing is there.
This alert expired on 6 July 2026 at 06:00 UTC. It is kept here as a record.
What the source measured
NOAA reported: Flash Flood Warning issued July 5 at 11:30PM EDT until July 6 at 2:00AM EDT by NWS Upton NY
Urban PEI: 246,910 within a heuristic 50 km radius; not unique people.
How we know
15 recorded sources include NOAA; independence is not established by this count.
Our own score for this event is 43 out of 100.
This is our versioned heuristic index, not source severity or a calibrated probability. Urban PEI does not count unique people.
Computed under scoring rules v1. Rows carrying other versions were judged by different rules and are not directly comparable.

Safety Information
During flooding: never walk, swim, or drive through floodwaters. Six inches of moving water can knock you down, and one foot of water can sweep away a vehicle. Move to higher ground if waters rise. After flooding, avoid contact with floodwater which may contain sewage, chemicals, or debris. Follow local emergency service guidance.
Series begins 8 March 2026. Comparisons refer to that period only. Collection gap: 14-26 August 2026.
