No flow at this gauge. USGS does not publish discharge here, so there are no flow statistics either; it reports what is shown. We found no other gauge on the same river that publishes flow.
Gauge height, last 7 days: 169 readings from Oct 29, 10:00 PM EDT to Nov 5, 8:45 PM EST; ranging 5.78 to 12.5 ft; latest 10.9 ft.
USGS provisional data may be revised. Source: USGS instantaneous values.

Map of USGS gauge 021720825 and the river around it
Where ASHLEY RIVER BELOW SUMMERVILLE, SC sits, with 2 other gauges on the same river.
Over 70°F: stressful for trout. Water 70.5°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 71.2°F. South Carolina DNR: “water temperatures above 70° F stress the trout and make them difficult to catch. Fishing is best very early in the morning or very late in the evening.”
Rising over 24 hours: gauge height up 0.86 ft. 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 list not on file for this gauge. Check the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources: South Carolina trout stocking summary · South Carolina hunting and fishing regulations.
Rising water. Rising over the last 24 hours (gauge height up 0.86 ft). 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.
Turn Around Don't Drown (National Weather Service)Dissolved oxygen 5.7 mg/L at Nov 5, 8:45 PM EST; 7-day range 5.5–6.5 mg/L
Below EPA's coldwater mean: 5.7 mg/L is under the 6.5 mg/L 30-day mean EPA sets for coldwater fish (other life stages), though above its 4 mg/L minimum. One reading is not a 30-day mean. Wyoming Game and Fish: “Higher water temperatures lead to lower oxygen levels.”
Quality Criteria for Water 1986 (“Gold Book”): dissolved oxygen, Table 1; pH (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency) Anglers encouraged to adjust fishing practices as temperatures rise (Wyoming Game and Fish Department)Specific conductance 4,660 µS/cm at Nov 5, 8:45 PM EST; 7-day range 1,150–6,400 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.
NWS observed 10.9 ft stage at Nov 5, 8:45 PM EST (NWS gauge ARDS1; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
NWS has not set flood categories for this gauge.
Forecasts are not available. Only observed stages are available for this point.
