Map of USGS gauge 01350355 and the river around it
Where SCHOHARIE CREEK AT BREAKABEEN NY sits, with 8 other gauges on the same river.
Normal for Nov 5: 40–712 ft³/s (middle half of 51 years of record). Now: 36.4 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 36.4 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 51 years of record (1976–2026): 10th 16, 25th 40, median 96, 75th 712, 90th 1,310 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 9.5 ft³/s, highest 2,320 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).
Rising over 24 hours: discharge up 14.1%, from 31.9 to 36.4 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.
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.

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)Rising water. Rising over the last 24 hours (discharge up 14.1%). Keep your way back to the bank in sight and watch the level while you fish. “Rising” is our rule of thumb: more than 10% in discharge or 0.2 ft of gauge height in 24 hours, not a USGS or NWS 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.
