Where AUSABLE RIVER NEAR AU SABLE FORKS NY sits.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer: the trout lines New York DEC uses are 70°F.
Species list not on file for this gauge. Check the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation: New York fish stocking lists · New York freshwater fishing regulations.
Normal for Nov 5: 302–807 ft³/s (middle half of 94 years of record). Now: 219 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 219 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 94 years of record (1911–2026): 10th 208, 25th 302, median 470, 75th 807, 90th 1,220 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 160 ft³/s, highest 3,340 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.
