Sadly on my local river with all the abstraction the highest level this Winter on the station gauge was only 10 cm above summer low levels and that only lasted a couple of hours. It never seems to flood any more, the river needs a good flush through.At least I know I can turn up and fish without any worries

Environment Agency for me,gives levels for the previous 4 days and on some rivers the predicted levels for the next day or so,great app 
Also got the weather apps as well so you can check out the predicted rainfall as well

My local station does not show predictions, so I also view a station several miles up stream. If this has risen in the last 24 hours I know my section is due to rise.

I really like the fact you can download the long term data, which shows the max and min levels of the monitoring station daily for the last 10 years or so, really useful if know the date of your previous trips or have a photo on your phone and want to check what the level was on that day.
