Map of USGS gauge 01091000 and the river around it
Where SOUTH BRANCH PISCATAQUOG RIVER NEAR GOFFSTOWN, NH sits and our water's map point.
Federal guidance. New Hampshire Fish and Game Department publishes no water-temperature line for trout anglers that we found. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a New Hampshire rule:
Under the federal 68°F line. Water 54.3°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 55°F. That is under the 68°F at which the National Park Service, at Grand Teton National Park, recommends anglers stop fishing in the afternoon (“cease fishing at 2 p.m. when water temperatures are likely to exceed 68°F”). Water warms through the afternoon, so check again later in the day: “Carry a pocket thermometer to monitor water temperature.”
Normal for Nov 5: 35–131 ft³/s (middle half of 56 years of record). Now: 20.5 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 20.5 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 56 years of record (1941–2026): 10th 17, 25th 35, median 66, 75th 131, 90th 341 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 7 ft³/s, highest 1,680 ft³/s.
Classes as USGS labels them (hyswap: flow categories (WDFN_stats schema) (U.S. Geological Survey) ); percentiles from the USGS daily statistics (U.S. Geological Survey) (approved daily means; the reading is provisional and instantaneous).
Steady over 24 hours (+0% discharge). Rising or falling means a change of more than 10% in discharge (or 0.2 ft of gauge height) over 24 hours; our rule of thumb, not a USGS class.
This gauge is on our page for South Branch Piscataquog River, but no agency page we read lists its species.
Cold water. Water 54.3°F. NWS: “Cold shock can be just as severe and dangerous from water temperatures of 50-60°F (10-15°C) as it is from water at 35°F (2°C).” “Always wear a life jacket in and around the water.”
Cold Water Hazards and Safety (National Weather Service)Turn Around Don't Drown. “A mere 6 inches of fast-moving flood water can knock over an adult.” No flow number makes a crossing safe; if in doubt, stay out.
Turn Around Don't Drown (National Weather Service)Guidance from the readings above and the published thresholds named with each line; not a fishing forecast, a safety guarantee or a statement about access. Local rules and closures come first.
NWS observed 3.18 ft stage, 21 ft³/s at Nov 5, 7:45 PM EST (NWS gauge SBPN3; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
NWS has not set flood categories for this gauge.
