Map of USGS gauge 01457500 and the river around it
Where Delaware River at Riegelsville NJ sits, with 7 other gauges on the same river.
USGS publishes no daily statistics for this gauge, so the reading is not compared with the record.
Steady over 24 hours (+3.7% discharge). 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.
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:
Under the federal 68°F line. Water 56.3°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 56.3°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)Species list not on file for this gauge. Check the New Jersey Fish & Wildlife: New Jersey trout stocking · New Jersey freshwater fishing regulations.
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)Cold water. Water 56.3°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)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 3.1 ft stage, 3,430 ft³/s at Nov 5, 7:30 PM EST (NWS gauge RGLN4; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
NWS river forecast forecast issued Nov 5, 10:16 AM EST. Highest point: 3.5 ft, 4,400 ft³/s on Nov 6, 7:00 AM EST (Below NWS action stage).
| Day | Stage | Flow |
|---|---|---|
| Thu, Nov 5 | 3.1 ft | 3,430 ft³/s |
| Fri, Nov 6 | 3.5 ft | 4,400 ft³/s |
| Sat, Nov 7 | 3.1 ft | 3,430 ft³/s |
| Sun, Nov 8 | 2.9 ft | 2,990 ft³/s |
