Map of USGS gauge 03228805 and the river around it
Where Alum Creek at Africa OH sits, with 2 other gauges on the same river.
Federal guidance. Ohio Division of Wildlife publishes no water-temperature line for trout anglers that we found. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a Ohio rule:
Under the federal 68°F line. Water 61.2°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 62.4°F. That is under the 68°F at which the National Park Service, at Grand Teton National Park, recommends anglers stop fishing in the afternoon (“cease fishing at 2 p.m. when water temperatures are likely to exceed 68°F”). Water warms through the afternoon, so check again later in the day: “Carry a pocket thermometer to monitor water temperature.”
Normal for Nov 5: 14–155 ft³/s (middle half of 53 years of record). Now: 76.6 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 76.6 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 53 years of record (1974–2026): 10th 8.2, 25th 14, median 60, 75th 155, 90th 266 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 3.56 ft³/s, highest 1,340 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.
Species list not on file for this gauge. Check the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Wildlife: Ohio steelhead stockings 2021-2025 · 2026-27 Ohio fishing regulations.
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.

NWS observed 1.92 ft stage, 76 ft³/s at Nov 5, 9:00 PM EST (NWS gauge AFRO1; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
