What this means

At 10.24 ft, Twentymile Creek near Guntown is below normal for mid-October.

That puts it 0.17 ft below the median of 10.41 ft for mid-October, based on 21 years of readings. A year ago it stood at 10.48 ft (−0.24 ft).

The level has held steady over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. Over the past 30 days it has moved between 10.22 ft and 10.62 ft.

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

What the stage means on the water

Low water means more dragging on shallow riffles and slower floats. Fish crowd into the deeper runs, and warm, low water stresses them, so play and release them quickly.
