Map of USGS gauge 13185000 and the river around it
Where BOISE RIVER NR TWIN SPRINGS ID sits, with 1 other gauge 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.
This gauge is on our page for Boise River, but no agency page we read lists its species.
Normal for Nov 5: 348–460 ft³/s (middle half of 115 years of record). Now: 334 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 334 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 115 years of record (1912–2026): 10th 309, 25th 348, median 407, 75th 460, 90th 586 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 260 ft³/s, highest 1,080 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 (−2.3% 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.
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.

NWS observed 5.33 ft stage, 334 ft³/s at Nov 5, 5:30 PM MST (NWS gauge BTSI1; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
