An effective early warning system must be developed with linkages between four elements, which are accurate data collection to undertake risk assessments, development of hazard monitoring services, communication on risk related information and existence of community response capabilities. This project focuses on monitoring water level remotely using wireless sensor network. The project also utilizes Global System for Mobile communication (GSM) and Short Message Service (SMS) to relay data from sensors to computers or directly alert the respective victim's through their mobile phone. It is hope that the proposed architecture can be further develop into a functioning system, which would be beneficial to the community and act as a precautionary action to save lives in the case of flood disaster. {\^A}{\copyright} 2008 IEEE.}, author = {Aziz, I.
