Red River: water levels along the river

We have 22 gauges on the Red River. 2 are below normal for the date and 3 are above. Low and high readings are fairly evenly spread.

On this page the river runs through North Dakota, Wisconsin, Kentucky, New Mexico and Tennessee. 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.
