Map of USGS gauge 02382200 and the river around it
Where TALKING ROCK CREEK NEAR HINTON, GA sits, with 1 other gauge 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. 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.
This gauge is on our page for , but no agency page we read lists its species.
Normal for Nov 5: 42–99 ft³/s (middle half of 53 years of record). Now: 109 ft³/s, above normal.
Above normal for this date. 109 ft³/s is between the 75th and 90th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 53 years of record (1974–2026): 10th 26, 25th 42, median 71, 75th 99, 90th 159 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 9.9 ft³/s, highest 1,500 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).
Falling over 24 hours: discharge down 38.1%, from 176 to 109 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.
Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
