What this means

Low water at Mountain Creek near Glendale: the gauge reads 1.63 ft, below normal for late October.

The level has held steady over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. The 30-day range is 1.62 ft – 1.67 ft.

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