Put the live gauges of a river right inside your story. The box updates itself every few minutes, shows the official step (Normal, Alert, Minor flood, Major flood), whether the river is rising or falling, and the next-hour forecast where we have one.
How to embed
Pick a widget below, or press "Embed this on your site" on any river, gauge or town page: it opens this builder already filled in.
Choose size, language, theme and units, check the live preview, then copy the code and paste it into your article as HTML.
Optional: the one-line script lets the box grow to fit its content. Without it, a fixed height still looks right.
