Map of USGS gauge 14321000 and the river around it
Where UMPQUA RIVER NEAR ELKTON, OR sits and our water's map point.
Under ODFW's 68°F line. Water 52.2°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 52.3°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)Normal for Nov 5: 1,360–3,060 ft³/s (middle half of 121 years of record). Now: 952 ft³/s, much below normal.
Much below normal for this date. 952 ft³/s is below the 10th percentile of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 121 years of record (1906–2026): 10th 1,100, 25th 1,360, median 1,830, 75th 3,060, 90th 4,690 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 836 ft³/s, highest 41,400 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.
This gauge is on our page for Umpqua River, but no agency page we read lists its species.
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 52.2°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.
