National Weather Service United States Department of Commerce

In coordination with City of Paris/Bourbon County and the USGS, the National Weather Service is happy to add Houston Creek at Paris to the Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Services (AHPS) web pages. Here is the link. The gage is mounted on the US 27 bridge southwest of the city. The data at this location will be updated every hour. This gage, in addition to the existing gage on Stoner Creek which will also report every hour, should allow residents in and near Paris monitor water levels more closely. Since the gage on Houston Creek is a new gage, there is no crest history or critical stages at this location, yet. No forecasts will be issued for Houston Creek but forecasts will continued to be issued for Stoner Creek if the stage is expected to approach or exceed 18 feet.
