Yukon River: water levels along the river

4 gauges report along the Yukon River. 1 of them reads below normal for the date, and none is running high.

The gauges are in Yukon. Reading the gauges in order shows how a rise or a dry spell travels downstream, usually over a day or more on a big river. Fall is often a low point for rivers after the summer, until steady rain returns.

About the Yukon River

Yukon River

The Yukon River is a major watercourse of northwestern North America. From its source in British Columbia, it flows through Canada's territory of Yukon. The lower half of the river continues westward through the U.S. state of Alaska. The river is 3,190 kilometres (1,980 mi) long and empties into the Bering Sea at the Yukon–Kuskokwim Delta. The average flow is 6,400–7,000 m3/s (230,000–250,000 cu ft/s). The total drainage area is 854,700 km2 (330,000 mi2), of which 323,800 km2 (125,000 mi2) lies in Canada. The total area is more than 25% larger than Texas or Alberta.
