What this means
At 3.06 ft, the Leon River near Hasse is below normal for mid-October.
That puts it 0.32 ft below the median of 3.38 ft for mid-October, based on 19 years of readings. A year ago it stood at 3.61 ft (−0.55 ft).
The level is falling, down 0.08 ft over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. Over the past 30 days it has moved between 3.06 ft and 3.72 ft.
Fall is often low-water season on rivers, and it usually takes a few days of steady rain to change that.
