What this means

At 2.75 ft, Little Elm Creek near Aubrey is below normal for late October.

The median for late October is 4.29 ft, based on 31 years of readings, so the river stage is 1.54 ft below typical. On the same day last year the reading was 2.07 ft, a difference of +0.68 ft.

It has barely moved over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. Over the past 30 days it has moved between 2.69 ft and 4.42 ft.

Fall is often low-water season on rivers, and it usually takes a few days of steady rain to change that. The water temperature at the gauge is 64 °F.
