Map of USGS gauge 02313000 and the river around it
Where WITHLACOOCHEE RIVER AT SR 200 NEAR HOLDER, FL sits, with 8 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
Normal for Nov 5: 470–1,530 ft³/s (middle half of 96 years of record). Now: 208 ft³/s, much below normal.
Much below normal for this date. 208 ft³/s is below the 10th percentile of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 96 years of record (1929–2026): 10th 275, 25th 470, median 912, 75th 1,530, 90th 2,400 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 73 ft³/s, highest 4,710 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 (−1.4% 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.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer. Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission publishes no water-temperature line for trout anglers that we found. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a Florida rule: 68°F.
