Where BEAVERDAM CREEK NEAR SARDIS, GA sits.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer. Georgia DNR Wildlife Resources Division publishes no water-temperature line for trout anglers that we found. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a Georgia rule, with Georgia DNR Wildlife Resources Division's own figure added: 68°F and 72°F.

Normal for Nov 5: 4.3–6.7 ft³/s (middle half of 40 years of record). Now: 5.15 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 5.15 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 40 years of record (1987–2026): 10th 3.2, 25th 4.3, median 5.2, 75th 6.7, 90th 22 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 2.09 ft³/s, highest 96.4 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 (+0% 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.
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.
