Map of USGS gauge 01540500 and the river around it
Where Susquehanna River at Danville, PA sits, with 3 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
Normal for Nov 5: 3,710–15,700 ft³/s (middle half of 120 years of record). Now: 3,020 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 3,020 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 120 years of record (1906–2025): 10th 2,000, 25th 3,710, median 7,630, 75th 15,700, 90th 26,100 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 755 ft³/s, highest 56,000 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).
Steady over 24 hours (+1% 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.
In or under PFBC's preferred range. Water 58.1°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 58.1°F. The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission: “The preferred temperature range for trout is between 50 and 60 degrees Fahrenheit.”
PFBC position statement on closing coldwater tributary mouths to angling in summer (2006) (Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission)This gauge is on the same river as our page for Susquehanna 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)Cold water. Water 58.1°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)Dissolved oxygen 11.5 mg/L at Nov 4, 9:15 AM EST; 7-day range 11–13 mg/L; more than a day old
Enough oxygen for coldwater fish: 11.5 mg/L meets the 6.5 mg/L EPA sets for coldwater fish (other life stages; eggs and fry need a 8 mg/L minimum).
Quality Criteria for Water 1986 (“Gold Book”): dissolved oxygen, Table 1; pH (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)pH 8.4 at Nov 4, 9:15 AM EST; 7-day range 8–8.7; more than a day old
Within EPA's freshwater range: pH 8.4 is within the 6.5–9 range EPA gives for freshwater aquatic life.
Quality Criteria for Water 1986 (“Gold Book”): dissolved oxygen, Table 1; pH (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)Specific conductance 380 µS/cm at Nov 5, 8:30 PM EST; 7-day range 339–380 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 2.75 ft stage, 3,010 ft³/s at Nov 5, 7:30 PM EST (NWS gauge DANP1; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
NWS river forecast forecast issued Nov 5, 9:41 AM EST. Highest point: 2.8 ft, 3,160 ft³/s on Nov 5, 1:00 PM EST (Below NWS action stage).
| Day | Stage | Flow |
|---|---|---|
| Thu, Nov 5 | 2.8 ft | 3,160 ft³/s |
| Fri, Nov 6 | 2.8 ft | 3,160 ft³/s |
| Sat, Nov 7 | 2.8 ft | 3,160 ft³/s |
| Sun, Nov 8 | 2.7 ft | 2,870 ft³/s |
