Map of USGS gauge 01381800 and the river around it
Where Whippany River near Pine Brook NJ sits, with 2 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
Federal guidance. New Jersey Fish and Wildlife 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 Jersey rule, with New Jersey Fish and Wildlife's own figure added:
Normal for Nov 5: 41–144 ft³/s (middle half of 29 years of record). Now: 49.4 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 49.4 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 29 years of record (1997–2025): 10th 30, 25th 41, median 78, 75th 144, 90th 217 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 28 ft³/s, highest 264 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 10.7%, from 55.3 to 49.4 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.
Under the federal 68°F line. Water 60.8°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 60.8°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.”
High water temperatures prompt fishing advisory in Grand Teton National Park (29 July 2022) (National Park Service)This gauge is on our page for Whippany River, but no agency page we read lists its species.
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.
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.
Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
NWS observed 2.76 ft stage, 54 ft³/s at Nov 5, 8:15 PM EST (NWS gauge PNBN4; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
Forecasts are not available. Only observed stages are available for this point.
