What this means

Low water at White Rk Creek at Greenville Ave, Dallas: the gauge reads 70.15 ft, below normal for mid-October.

That puts it 0.85 ft below the median of 71.00 ft for mid-October, based on 31 years of readings. It is 13.85 ft below the flood stage of 84.00 ft. A year ago it stood at 70.26 ft (−0.11 ft).

The level has held steady over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. The 30-day range is 69.90 ft – 75.72 ft.

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