Eddyflower Flows

Anyone know how Eddyflower sets up their flow ratings? Right now, there are 8-10 runs in Arkansas that Eddyflower lists as "Crankin'", including the Cossatot near Vandervort (18 cfs or something like that). (See http://eddyflower.com/CountryDetail.aspx?StateId=33

I almost always use Fish's gauge page, but like the PDA-friendly version of Eddyflower when I'm away from the PC. Would be nice to have Eddyflower show meaningful info.

The Eddyflower page seems a bit unreliable. It says the Big Piney, Mulberry, and Cossatot are currently "Crankin" or so fast you probably shouldn't float em. Fish's page has em all in the red (unfloatably low). I trust Fish more than Eddyflower. His page hasn't screwed me over yet.

And Fish, if you are reading this, THANKS A MILLION :D for making the levels page. I use it every time I plan a float :!: . Your page is irreplaceable.

I haven't advertised it much, but here's a lower bandwidth version of the gauge page that should be better for cell phones (or even PDA's, if you can find one in a museum). :-)

Here are some really small radar images too that you can load up if you don't have much of a connection:

Thanks for the low bandwidth links, Fish. They're perfect for my legacy cell phone plan with 1MB of data/month.

Yeah, Thanks Fish for the low bandwidth page and radar links. I'll definitely keep them in mind if I ever get a cell phone! :beer:
