Map of USGS gauge 10348200 and the river around it
Where TRUCKEE RV NR SPARKS, NV sits, with 8 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
Normal for Nov 5: 199–374 ft³/s (middle half of 49 years of record). Now: 379 ft³/s, above normal.
Above normal for this date. 379 ft³/s is between the 75th and 90th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 49 years of record (1978–2026): 10th 32, 25th 199, median 301, 75th 374, 90th 459 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 4.7 ft³/s, highest 1,800 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 (−1% 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.
Not over NDOW's 65°F line. Water 48.6°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 49.3°F. That is not over the 65°F NDOW names for catch and release in summer (Truckee River guide). On warm days NDOW suggests “fishing early in the morning and late in the evenings when surface temperatures are down.”
Truckee River angler and fish survey information (2026) (Nevada Department of Wildlife) Cold Creek Reservoir (Nevada Department of Wildlife)This gauge is on our page for Truckee River, but no agency page we read lists its species.
Cold water. Water 48.6°F. NWS: “Cold shock can be just as severe and dangerous from water temperatures of 50-60°F (10-15°C) as it is from water at 35°F (2°C).” “Always wear a life jacket in and around the water.”
Cold Water Hazards and Safety (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.
Turn Around Don't Drown (National Weather Service)Specific conductance 123 µS/cm at Nov 5, 9:00 PM PST; 7-day range 117–165 µS/cm
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, 9:22 PM PST; 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.
