Map of USGS gauge 09306290 and the river around it
Where WHITE RIVER BELOW BOISE CREEK, NEAR RANGELY, CO. sits, with 1 other gauge on the same river and our water's map point.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer: the trout lines Colorado Parks and Wildlife uses are 71°F.
This gauge is on our page for White River, but no agency page we read lists its species.
Normal for Nov 5: 389–525 ft³/s (middle half of 44 years of record). Now: 357 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 357 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 44 years of record: 10th 348, 25th 389, median 432, 75th 525, 90th 632 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 298 ft³/s, highest 726 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 (−4.5% 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.
Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
Flood categories: action stage, minor, moderate and major flooding (National Weather Service)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.
