Map of USGS gauge 13047500 and the river around it
Where FALL RIVER NR SQUIRREL ID sits, with 3 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer: the trout lines Idaho Fish and Game uses are 66°F and 73°F.
Normal for Nov 5: 226–247 ft³/s (middle half of 33 years of record). Now: 223 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 223 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 33 years of record (1994–2026): 10th 215, 25th 226, median 232, 75th 247, 90th 320 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 202 ft³/s, highest 756 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 (−1.3% 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.
