Name:NOAA/NOS/CO-OPS Water Level Data Retrieval Page.URL:http://co- ops.nos.noaa.gov/data_res.html. Adminstrated by Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services. http://co- ops.nos.noaa.gov/. Rating**1/2

Review:Interesting in the reports that indicate water levels of the lakes. It can plot the water level of any lake choosen in the pull- down table in the latest events. For example, it shows Ogdensburg, St. Lawerence minimim and maximum water level in the past and can report even as close as today. Pertains a bit to the class.
