Map of USGS gauge 10318500 and the river around it
Where HUMBOLDT RV NR ELKO, NV 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: the trout lines Nevada Department of Wildlife uses are 65°F.
Species list not on file for this gauge. Check the Nevada Department of Wildlife: Nevada fishing and stocking reports · Nevada fishing rules and regulations.
Normal for Nov 5: 8.1–49 ft³/s (middle half of 89 years of record). Now: 2.44 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 2.44 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 89 years of record (1896–2026): 10th 2.3, 25th 8.1, median 18, 75th 49, 90th 69 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 1 ft³/s, highest 332 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 (−8.3% 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.
