What this means

Low water at Uphapee Creek near Tuskegee: the gauge reads 0.96 ft, far below normal for mid-October.

The median for mid-October is 1.63 ft, based on 51 years of readings, so the river stage is 0.67 ft below typical. On the same day last year the reading was 0.79 ft, a difference of +0.17 ft.

It has barely moved over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. The 30-day range is 0.87 ft – 2.81 ft.

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