What this means

The East Fork Virgin River near Glendale is running below normal at 10.10 ft.

It has barely moved over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. In the last month it has stayed between 10.06 ft and 10.11 ft.

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