Solid dots mark combined sewer outfalls. Ringed dots mark treatment plant outfalls. Small hollow diamonds mark places named in its overflow reports (provisional). A yellow ring with a dashed edge means discharge likely or possible: heavy rain, no report received. Square boat markers mark boat launches listed by OpenBoatLaunch.

Rain and discharges

The NOAA MRMS radar-only rainfall estimate for the 24 hours to the latest hour, read every hour at each outfall from the radar grid. We show a caution when the rain reaches the amount below and no discharge report has arrived.

Threshold
0.1 in of rain in 24 hours (site default: This site's default: 0.1 inch of rain in 24 hours at a combined sewer outfall, applied where the state publishes no rain trigger of its own)
Radar now
1.2 in in the 24 hours to Nov 6, 2026, 2:00 AM CST
Forecast
No forecast available
Status
Discharge possible: heavy rain, no report received

Wastewater outlets

Outfall: a pipe or outlet where wastewater enters a water body.

4 combined sewer outfalls and 1 treatment plant outfall listed by EPA or state agencies; 4 places named in its own overflow reports (provisional locations). Discharge likely or possible now at some of them: see Rain and discharges above.

Combined sewer outfalls

4 outfalls · discharge possible now at 4

Discharge possible: heavy rain, no report received at 4 outfalls now: radar rainfall has reached the operator's threshold and no discharge report has arrived (NOAA radar estimate).

Treatment plant outfalls

1 outfall

Source: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) permit records (ICIS-NPDES permitted features): where a treatment plant’s permitted discharge leaves. No national source says whether a plant outfall is open or closed.

Places named in overflow reports (provisional)

4 places

Provisional location from overflow reports. Where the operator's own reports put an overflow: a manhole, pump station or plant. Not an outfall listed in a permit.

  • Reported place · 4 overflow reports, latest Jul 26, 2026 · confidence high · no water record yet
  • Reported place · 2 overflow reports, latest Aug 1, 2026 · confidence high · no water record yet

Source: the operator's own overflow reports to the state. DirtyWaterWatch groups reports within 50 metres into one place and finds the water below it with U.S. Geological Survey river maps (NLDI, NHDPlus). Not a permitted outfall; provisional until an official outfall record exists.

Reports and advisories

Sanitary sewer overflow (SSO): sewage spills from a sewer meant to carry sewage separately from rainwater. Combined sewer overflow (CSO): sewage mixed with rainwater spills from a shared sewer system. Treatment bypass: wastewater skips one or more treatment steps.

How these charts are counted

We count each discharge once. Where a source publishes notices and confirmed reports, we use confirmed reports for an operator's month when available; otherwise we use notices. We combine revisions and exclude duplicate state reports copied by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Monthly and yearly totals appear separately. Status hours follow this site's rules. Shaded gaps mean missing coverage, not zero discharges.
