Normal for Nov 5: 1,560–6,550 ft³/s (middle half of 87 years of record). Now: 6,500 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 6,500 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 87 years of record (1940–2026): 10th 956, 25th 1,560, median 3,140, 75th 6,550, 90th 11,700 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 248 ft³/s, highest 154,000 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).
Rising over 24 hours: discharge up 38.6%, from 4,690 to 6,500 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.
Water temperature, last 7 days: 169 readings from Oct 29, 8:30 PM EDT to Nov 5, 7:30 PM EST; ranging 57.7 to 60.1 °F; latest 59.2 °F.
USGS provisional data may be revised. Source: USGS instantaneous values.

Map of USGS gauge 03072655 and the river around it
Where Monongahela River near Masontown, PA sits, with 8 other gauges on the same river.
In or under PFBC's preferred range. Water 59.2°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 59.7°F. The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission: “The preferred temperature range for trout is between 50 and 60 degrees Fahrenheit.”
PFBC position statement on closing coldwater tributary mouths to angling in summer (2006) (Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission)Species list not on file for this gauge. Check the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission: Pennsylvania adult trout stocking schedule · Pennsylvania fishing regulations.
Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
Flood categories: action stage, minor, moderate and major flooding (National Weather Service)Rising water. Rising over the last 24 hours (discharge up 38.6%). 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.
Cold water. Water 59.2°F. NWS: “Cold shock can be just as severe and dangerous from water temperatures of 50-60°F (10-15°C) as it is from water at 35°F (2°C).” “Always wear a life jacket in and around the water.”
Cold Water Hazards and Safety (National Weather Service)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 9.5 mg/L at Nov 5, 7:30 PM EST; 7-day range 9.4–10.1 mg/L
Enough oxygen for coldwater fish: 9.5 mg/L meets the 6.5 mg/L EPA sets for coldwater fish (other life stages; eggs and fry need a 8 mg/L minimum).
Quality Criteria for Water 1986 (“Gold Book”): dissolved oxygen, Table 1; pH (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)pH 7.2 at Nov 5, 7:30 PM EST; 7-day range 7.2–7.3
Within EPA's freshwater range: pH 7.2 is within the 6.5–9 range EPA gives for freshwater aquatic life.
Quality Criteria for Water 1986 (“Gold Book”): dissolved oxygen, Table 1; pH (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)Specific conductance 196 µS/cm at Nov 5, 7:30 PM EST; 7-day range 153–212 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.
Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
NWS observed 11.3 ft stage, 6,430 ft³/s at Nov 5, 7:16 PM EST (NWS gauge GYLP1; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
NWS river forecast forecast issued Nov 5, 9:09 AM EST. Highest point: 10.7 ft, 4,080 ft³/s on Nov 5, 7:00 PM EST (Below NWS action stage).
| Day | Stage | Flow |
