Map of USGS gauge 13057940 and the river around it
Where WILLOW CREEK BL TEX CREEK NR RIRIE ID sits, with 4 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: 27–52 ft³/s (middle half of 43 years of record). Now: 27.7 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 27.7 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 43 years of record (1978–2026): 10th 22, 25th 27, median 39, 75th 52, 90th 68 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 12 ft³/s, highest 73.8 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 (−7.7% 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.
This gauge is on our page for Willow Creek, but no agency page we read lists its species.
