Map of USGS gauge 14174000 and the river around it
Where WILLAMETTE RIVER AT ALBANY, OR sits, with 4 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
Normal for Nov 5: 4,810–11,500 ft³/s (middle half of 132 years of record). Now: 5,070 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 5,070 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 132 years of record (1894–2026): 10th 3,210, 25th 4,810, median 7,920, 75th 11,500, 90th 15,000 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 2,220 ft³/s, highest 61,100 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 (−1.7% 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.
Under ODFW's 68°F line. Water 52.5°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 53.1°F. That is under the 68°F at which ODFW says trout, steelhead and salmon “start to feel stressed”. “Fish early in the morning when water temperatures are cooler and fish are more active.”
5 tips for fishing in hot water (Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife)Species the agency lists for Willamette River: Bass, Panfish, Salmon, Steelhead, Trout.

Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
Flood categories: action stage, minor, moderate and major flooding (National Weather Service)Cold water. Water 52.5°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.
