Map of USGS gauge 12462500 and the river around it
Where WENATCHEE RIVER AT MONITOR, WA sits, with 2 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
Federal guidance. Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife publishes no water-temperature line for trout anglers that we found. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a Washington rule:
Normal for Nov 5: 1,050–2,780 ft³/s (middle half of 64 years of record). Now: 367 ft³/s, much below normal.
Much below normal for this date. 367 ft³/s is below the 10th percentile of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 64 years of record (1963–2026): 10th 669, 25th 1,050, median 1,510, 75th 2,780, 90th 4,330 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 366 ft³/s, highest 6,620 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 (−1.9% 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.
Under the federal 68°F line. Water 45°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 46°F. That is under the 68°F at which the National Park Service, at Grand Teton National Park, recommends anglers stop fishing in the afternoon (“cease fishing at 2 p.m. when water temperatures are likely to exceed 68°F”). Water warms through the afternoon, so check again later in the day: “Carry a pocket thermometer to monitor water temperature.”
High water temperatures prompt fishing advisory in Grand Teton National Park (29 July 2022) (National Park Service)This gauge is on our page for Wenatchee River, but no agency page we read lists its species.
Cold water. Water 45°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.
NWS observed 16.4 ft stage at Nov 5, 7:30 PM PST (NWS gauge MONW1; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
NWS has not set flood categories for this gauge.
Forecasts are not available. Only observed stages are available for this point.
