Map of USGS gauge 11418500 and the river around it
Where DEER C NR SMARTSVILLE CA sits.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer: the trout lines CDFW uses are 67°F.

Normal for Nov 5: 5.6–23 ft³/s (middle half of 91 years of record). Now: 9.73 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 9.73 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 91 years of record (1936–2026): 10th 2.4, 25th 5.6, median 12, 75th 23, 90th 43 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 0.8 ft³/s, highest 460 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 (+6.5% 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.
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.
