What this means

Low water at Oneida River near Euclid: the gauge reads 2.90 ft, below normal for mid-October.

It is still going down, by 0.04 ft over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. The 30-day range is 2.81 ft – 3.13 ft.

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