Map of USGS gauge 05514840 and the river around it
Where Dardenne Creek at O'Fallon, MO 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. Missouri Department of Conservation publishes no water-temperature line for trout anglers that we found. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a Missouri rule, with Missouri Department of Conservation's own figure added: 68°F and 70°F.

Normal for Nov 5: 2.88–49.3 ft³/s (middle half of 26 years of record). Now: 7.01 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 7.01 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 26 years of record: 10th 1.98, 25th 2.88, median 6.21, 75th 49.3, 90th 122 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 0.99 ft³/s, highest 3,030 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 41.6%, from 12 to 7.01 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.
Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
