Source: USGS Water Data (provisional data, subject to revision; readings refresh every 30 minutes). cfs = cubic feet per second; gage height is the water level at the gauge, not depth. The reading is at the gauge, not necessarily at the stocked section. Normals: 25 years of USGS daily record (2000–2026), approved values. Flows well above normal for the date usually run high and off-color.
