Real-Time Data

The City of Virginia Beach and our partners maintain a robust network of sensors to keep track of water levels, rainfall, wind, groundwater, water quality and air quality. Select the icons on the map below to access data.

Note: Sensor data is not reviewed in real time. Errors or time delays may exist. Use at your own caution. ​

As part of an ongoing software transition, the StormSense network is currently unavailable on this platform. Users can use the National Water Prediction Service in the meantime to access data from selected gauges.
