Map of USGS gauge 01548500 and the river around it
Where Pine Creek at Cedar Run, PA sits, with 2 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer: the trout lines Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission uses are 60°F, 70°F and 72°F.
Normal for Nov 5: 105–834 ft³/s (middle half of 108 years of record). Now: 98.8 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 98.8 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 108 years of record (1919–2026): 10th 58, 25th 105, median 321, 75th 834, 90th 1,410 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 26 ft³/s, highest 5,970 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 12.9%, from 87.5 to 98.8 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.
Species the agency lists for Pine Creek: Brook Trout, Brown Trout.
Source: Class A Wild Trout Waters (Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission).
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 12.9%). 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.
