Map of USGS gauge 14319500 and the river around it
Where NORTH UMPQUA RIVER AT WINCHESTER, OR sits, with 1 other gauge on the same river and our water's map point.
Under ODFW's 68°F line. Water 49.1°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 49.1°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 waterNormal for Nov 5: 1,030–2,410 ft³/s (middle half of 83 years of record). Now: 759 ft³/s, much below normal.
Much below normal for this date. 759 ft³/s is below the 10th percentile of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 83 years of record (1909–2026): 10th 928, 25th 1,030, median 1,400, 75th 2,410, 90th 4,150 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 727 ft³/s, highest 7,100 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% 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.
Species the agency lists for North Umpqua River: summer steelhead.

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 49.1°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.
