A river can be in very different shape at different gauges (tributaries, dams and diversions). Statuses compare each gauge's current flow with that gauge's own history for the date. How to read a status.
Data from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). Readings are provisional and subject to revision. Flowcast statuses are automated comparisons with each gauge's own history, not safety ratings or fishing reports. Check local conditions, weather, regulations and closures before you go. Rivers can change quickly.
