Overview

Blank days are retained. Wilbur uses Watauga publication WTGT1; a recreation calendar is distinct from the current generation schedule.

Query contract

Preserve one canonical row per (location_id, snapshot_time, date_label) before aggregating.

Analysis rules

For current state, select the latest complete snapshot_time per location_id from tva.feed_snapshots for this table. A row_count of zero means empty; never fall back to an older nonempty snapshot.

Interpretation

snapshot_time is collection time. Check the source day/time labels before describing data as current.
Raw strings preserve source units, missing-value sentinels and estimation marks; source_record retains all source fields.

Dataset	Description
TVA City River Elevations and ForecastsTVA · daily values, collected every 15 minutes	Midnight river elevations in feet for 11 cities, with the observed day and three forecast days in one publication. The response does not label evidence per row; preserve the whole snapshot and its date context rather than calling every row observed.
TVA Recreation Calendar Status KeysTVA · daily collection	The companion calendar colors as printed. Join one snapshot of each publication by location_id and date_label; colors encode the source calendar legend and are not a measured flow.
TVA Reservoir Hourly ObservationsTVA · hourly observations, collected every 15 minutes	The published rolling 48 hours of reservoir elevation, tailwater elevation (feet above mean sea level) and average hourly discharge (cubic feet per second). Raw day and time_label preserve EDT/EST/CDT/CST. Midnight denotes the end of the printed day. Source sentinel values and missing readings are retained.
TVA Reservoir Inflow and Elevation ForecastsTVA · daily and intraday revisions, collected every 15 minutes	TVA daily average inflow/outflow in cfs and predicted midnight reservoir elevation in feet for the published three-day horizon. snapshot_time is when collected; TVA does not supply an issuance timestamp.
