Map of USGS gauge 03453000 and the river around it
Where IVY RIVER NEAR MARSHALL, NC sits.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer. NC Wildlife Resources 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 North Carolina rule, with N.C. Cooperative Extension's own figure added: 68°F and 70°F.
Species list not on file for this gauge. Check the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission: North Carolina daily trout stockings · North Carolina fishing regulations.
Normal for Nov 5: 42–99 ft³/s (middle half of 71 years of record). Now: 83.1 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 83.1 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 71 years of record (1935–2026): 10th 26, 25th 42, median 60, 75th 99, 90th 177 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 22 ft³/s, highest 561 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 (+1.8% 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.
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)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.
