Where CALFPASTURE RIVER ABOVE MILL CREEK AT GOSHEN, VA sits.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer: the trout lines Virginia DWR uses are 68°F.

Normal for Nov 5: 11–79 ft³/s (middle half of 85 years of record). Now: 13 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 13 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 85 years of record (1939–2025): 10th 6.9, 25th 11, median 32, 75th 79, 90th 205 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 3.5 ft³/s, highest 21,900 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 (+4.8% 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.
