Map of USGS gauge 11461500 and the river around it
Where EF RUSSIAN R NR CALPELLA CA sits.
Under CDFW's 67°F line. Water 54.1°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 54.1°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.
CDFW Recommends “Hoot Owl” Practices for Fishing Inland Waters During Drought (15 July 2022) (California Department of Fish and Wildlife)Normal for Nov 5: 71–300 ft³/s (middle half of 85 years of record). Now: 20.4 ft³/s, much below normal.
Much below normal for this date. 20.4 ft³/s is below the 10th percentile of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 85 years of record (1942–2026): 10th 45, 25th 71, median 213, 75th 300, 90th 316 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 4.6 ft³/s, highest 338 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 (−4.7% 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.

Cold water. Water 54.1°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)Dissolved oxygen 9.7 mg/L at Nov 5, 6:15 PM PST; 7-day range 9.6–10.9 mg/L
Enough oxygen for coldwater fish: 9.7 mg/L meets the 6.5 mg/L EPA sets for coldwater fish (other life stages; eggs and fry need a 8 mg/L minimum).
Quality Criteria for Water 1986 (“Gold Book”): dissolved oxygen, Table 1; pH (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)pH 7.8 at Nov 5, 6:15 PM PST; 7-day range 7.8–8.1
Within EPA's freshwater range: pH 7.8 is within the 6.5–9 range EPA gives for freshwater aquatic life.
Quality Criteria for Water 1986 (“Gold Book”): dissolved oxygen, Table 1; pH (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)Turbidity 1.3 FNU at Nov 5, 6:15 PM PST; 7-day range 1.2–3.7 FNU
Water clarity: Turbidity measures the relative clarity of water: higher means murkier. No agency publishes a fishing threshold for it; compare with this gauge's own recent readings.
Turbidity and Water (U.S. Geological Survey)Specific conductance 252 µS/cm at Nov 5, 6:15 PM PST; 7-day range 244–258 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.
NWS observed 5.1 ft stage, 20 ft³/s at Nov 5, 6:15 PM PST (NWS gauge CXLC1; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
NWS has not set flood categories for this gauge.
Graphical forecasts are not available during times of high water, forecast crest information can be found in the local WFO web page.
