River Levels
What is running right now
Live streamflow for 5,413 gauged river reaches, straight from USGS gauges that update hourly. Where the record allows, each reading is compared against that gauge's own history for today's date, so you get high or low rather than a number you have to interpret.

Readings come from the U.S. Geological Survey. A gauge tells you how much water is moving, not whether a stretch is safe to run: check the channel, the hazards and a current local notice before you launch. Browse every mapped reach in the river explorer.
