Map of USGS gauge 10322500 and the river around it
Where HUMBOLDT RV AT PALISADE, NV sits, with 2 other gauges 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 · .
Normal for Nov 5: 34–100 ft³/s (middle half of 119 years of record). Now: 33.5 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 33.5 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 119 years of record (1903–2026): 10th 27, 25th 34, median 55, 75th 100, 90th 141 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 12 ft³/s, highest 404 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 (−3.2% 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.
