Is Hurricane Creek at Baton Rouge higher than last year?

No, it is 0.42 ft lower than on the same day last year, when the reading was 33.41 ft.

Is gage height the same as water depth?

No. Gage height is measured from a fixed reference point chosen by the agency, so a reading of 10 ft does not mean the river is 10 ft deep.

On Oct 21, 2026, 04:15 AM CDT, the water level was 32.99 ft. Steady over the last 24 hours.

Is Hurricane Creek at Baton Rouge rising or falling?

Steady over the last 24 hours. Down 0.05 ft over the last 7 days.

Is the level of Hurricane Creek at Baton Rouge normal?
