When I was a kid I made a dam in a river and when the water got up to the top of dam it would sound an alarm. I use an oscillator and a little radio circuit. It only worked to about 15 feet but it gave an audible alarm. The only problem is that I was standing in the rain to hear it. That might be an idea for you.
