Water level

What this means

High water at Provo River near Hailstone: the latest reading is 2.69 ft, well above normal for mid-October.

It is on the way up, by 0.09 ft over the past 24 hours. If the rise continues, low-lying paths and riverside parking can go under water. The 30-day range is 2.57 ft – 2.70 ft.

That stands out in fall, when many rivers are usually near their lowest.

Compared with 5 years of daily readings for this time of year. How to read levels

Staying safe in high water

Flood stage is only the first threshold. Above it the National Weather Service sets moderate and major flood stages, and the forecast crest tells you which of those the river is expected to reach.

Upstream gauges on the same river usually show a rise first, which is a useful early warning.
