Normal for Nov 5: 24–48 ft³/s (middle half of 25 years of record). Now: 55.9 ft³/s, above normal.
Above normal for this date. 55.9 ft³/s is between the 75th and 90th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 25 years of record (1943–2026): 10th 22, 25th 24, median 42, 75th 48, 90th 56 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 18.6 ft³/s, highest 69.7 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 19.7%, from 69.6 to 55.9 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)Specific conductance 432 µS/cm at Nov 1, 1:00 AM MDT; 7-day range 432–462 µS/cm; more than a day old
Dissolved ions: Specific conductance rises with the ions dissolved in the water. No fishing threshold is published for it; compare with this gauge's own recent readings.
Conductivity (Electrical Conductance) and Water (U.S. Geological Survey)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.
The National Weather Service has no flood-stage gauge here, so no official flood category is shown.
Checked Nov 5, 9:39 PM MST; readings refresh at most every 15 minutes and statistics daily. Provisional USGS data can be revised. Conditions change: re-check before you go. This is general guidance, not a fishing forecast, a safety guarantee or a statement about access.
