What this means

The Zymoetz River above O.K. Creek is running below normal at 1.05 m.

That puts it 0.20 m below the median of 1.26 m for mid-October, based on 14 years of readings.

It has dropped 0.08 m over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. In the last month it has stayed between 0.54 m and 2.84 m.

Fall is often low-water season on rivers, and it usually takes a few days of steady rain to change that.
