Is Sipsey Fork at Sipsey higher than last year?

No, it is 0.23 ft lower than on the same day last year, when the reading was 35.29 ft.

No. Gage height is measured from a fixed reference point chosen by the agency, so a reading of 10 ft does not mean the river is 10 ft deep.

Steady over the last 24 hours. Down 0.14 ft over the last 7 days.

Is the level of Sipsey Fork at Sipsey normal?
