Map of USGS gauge 01327750 and the river around it
Where HUDSON RIVER AT FORT EDWARD NY sits, with 2 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer: the trout lines New York DEC uses are 70°F.
This gauge is on our page for , but no agency page we read lists its species.
Normal for Nov 5: 2,980–7,650 ft³/s (middle half of 59 years of record). Now: 2,540 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 2,540 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 59 years of record: 10th 2,290, 25th 2,980, median 4,210, 75th 7,650, 90th 8,310 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 1,460 ft³/s, highest 15,000 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 25.5%, from 3,410 to 2,540 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.
Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
Flood categories: action stage, minor, moderate and major flooding (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.

NWS observed 20.9 ft stage, 2,060 ft³/s at Nov 5, 8:45 PM EST (NWS gauge FTEN6; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
NWS river forecast forecast issued Nov 5, 10:32 AM EST. Highest point: 21.2 ft, 3,210 ft³/s on Nov 8, 1:00 AM EST (Below NWS action stage).
