Map of USGS gauge 07378000 and the river around it
Where Comite River near Comite, LA sits, with 7 other gauges on the same river.
Normal for Nov 5: 58–138 ft³/s (middle half of 77 years of record). Now: 59.1 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 59.1 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 77 years of record (1945–2021): 10th 49, 25th 58, median 75, 75th 138, 90th 298 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 37 ft³/s, highest 5,690 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 (−6.6% 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.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer. We found no Louisiana agency water-temperature line for trout anglers. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a Louisiana rule: 68°F.
