What this means

At 0.91 ft, Spring Creek above Twin Buttes Reservoir near San Angelo is below normal for late October.

The median for late October is 1.16 ft, based on 25 years of readings, so the river stage is 0.25 ft below typical. A year ago it stood at 0.91 ft as well.

It has barely moved over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly.

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