Map of USGS gauge 01100505 and the river around it
Where SPICKET RIVER AT NORTH SALEM, NH sits, with 1 other gauge on the same river.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer. 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: 68°F.

Normal for Nov 5: 11–35 ft³/s (middle half of 26 years of record). Now: 30.1 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 30.1 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 26 years of record (2001–2026): 10th 9, 25th 11, median 19, 75th 35, 90th 68 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 7.84 ft³/s, highest 105 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).
Falling over 24 hours: discharge down 10.9%, from 33.8 to 30.1 ft³/s. 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.
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.
