Map of USGS gauge 11446500 and the river around it
Where AMERICAN R A FAIR OAKS CA sits, with 2 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
Under CDFW's 67°F line. Water 57°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 58.1°F. That is not over the 67°F CDFW uses for its voluntary “Hoot Owl” watchlist: “Sustained afternoon water temperatures exceeding 67 degrees Fahrenheit for trout fisheries could trigger additions to the list.” Water warms in the afternoon; check again later in the day.
Normal for Nov 5: 1,090–2,180 ft³/s (middle half of 71 years of record). Now: 1,220 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 1,220 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 71 years of record (1956–2026): 10th 658, 25th 1,090, median 1,760, 75th 2,180, 90th 2,840 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 283 ft³/s, highest 5,000 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 (+1.7% 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.
Species the agency lists for American River: Steelhead.
From our page for American River, on the same river as this gauge; the agency list is for the water, not this exact reach. Source: Steelhead Report and Restoration Card location codes (named river systems) (California Department of Fish and Wildlife Fisheries Branch).
Cold water. Water 57°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)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, 5:58 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.
