Map of USGS gauge 05379400 and the river around it
Where TREMPEALEAU RIVER AT ARCADIA, WI sits, with 1 other gauge on the same river.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer. Wisconsin DNR publishes no water-temperature line for trout anglers that we found. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a Wisconsin rule: 68°F.
Species list not on file for this gauge. Check the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources: Wisconsin fish stocking · Wisconsin fishing regulations.
Normal for Nov 5: 270–390 ft³/s (middle half of 31 years of record). Now: 577 ft³/s, above normal.
Above normal for this date. 577 ft³/s is between the 75th and 90th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 31 years of record (1961–2026): 10th 220, 25th 270, median 328, 75th 390, 90th 624 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 199 ft³/s, highest 774 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 15.1%, from 680 to 577 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.
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)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.
NWS observation not current. NWS has no current observation at this gauge, so no flood category is shown.
Forecasts are issued as needed during times of high water, but are not routinely available.
