This gauge is not sending water temperature — it has sent no water temperature for 1424 days, since 28 October 2022. USGS still answers for it, with the last value it ever sent and nothing to say the sensor has gone, so nothing on this page is presented as a current reading. Everything below — the record, the monthly means, the thirty-day chart — is the gauge's own history and is unaffected. The normal is the mean of every reading at this gauge within 3 days of this calendar date in the previous years of record — 7 readings, averaging 47.9 °F.

Computed here from the last 5 years of USGS daily values at this gauge — 404 temperature days over 1.1 years and 0 flow days. These are not USGS-published normals, and a month with fewer than 20 days of record is left blank rather than averaged. This gauge has under 3 years of temperature record, which is why no normal is compared against above.
