Normal for Nov 5: 6.6–17 ft³/s (middle half of 35 years of record). Now: 6.19 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 6.19 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 35 years of record (1991–2025): 10th 4.1, 25th 6.6, median 9.2, 75th 17, 90th 42 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 2.8 ft³/s, highest 80.2 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 11.1%, from 6.96 to 6.19 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.
