Map of USGS gauge 01423000 and the river around it
Where WEST BRANCH DELAWARE RIVER AT WALTON NY sits, with 5 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
Normal for Nov 5: 141–692 ft³/s (middle half of 76 years of record). Now: 149 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 149 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 76 years of record (1951–2026): 10th 50, 25th 141, median 372, 75th 692, 90th 1,140 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 15 ft³/s, highest 1,850 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 14.6%, from 130 to 149 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 New York DEC's 70°F line. Water 54.9°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 55°F. That is not over the 70°F above which New York DEC says “trout and salmon can experience physical stress”. “Fish early in the day. Stream temperatures are at their coolest in the early morning hours.”

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 14.6%). 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.
Cold water. Water 54.9°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)Specific conductance 142 µS/cm at Nov 5, 7:45 PM EST; 7-day range 135–147 µS/cm
Dissolved ions: Specific conductance rises with the ions dissolved in the water. No fishing threshold is published for it; compare with this gauge's own recent readings.
Conductivity (Electrical Conductance) and Water (U.S. Geological Survey)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 3.48 ft stage, 149 ft³/s at Nov 5, 7:45 PM EST (NWS gauge WALN6; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
NWS river forecast forecast issued Nov 5, 10:15 AM EST. Highest point: 3.7 ft on Nov 5, 7:00 PM EST (Below NWS action stage).

| Thu, Nov 5 | 3.7 ft | – |
