For upon |The U.S. Geological Survey’s New England Water Science Center hosts an interactive map that displays current water conditions for each state in New England. The map has real-time, geolocated water data for New England, including:

  • Surface water levels, including streamflow conditions
  • Ground water levels
  • Water quality data, including temperature, pH, and turbidity

The map, which is navigable on desktop computers and mobile devices, includes data for Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. Color-coded symbols at each site indicate if the water levels are above or below normal, and users may access downloadable data from the National Water Information System by clicking on a symbol.

  • The historic but slower coastal road is Route 1 (Boston Post Road).
  • Major inland highways include I-91, which shoots due north from New Haven, CT, to the border of Vermont and Canada, cutting through the middle of Connecticut and Massachusetts and running along the border of New Hampshire and Vermont.
  • One major east-west highway is I-90 (the Massachusetts Turnpike, or “Mass Pike,” which travels straight across the center of Massachusetts.
