This gauge is not sending water temperature — its water-temperature series is empty, and was last stamped 28 September 2026. 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.
Daily means from USGS. A gap in the line is a gap in the record.

The water it stands in
We hold no coldwater classification for this river, so the page makes no claim about one. The gauge is here because it stands close to water that does carry a designation.
Snapped to NHD reach Saint Croix River (22001200010137), 58.7 m away. That join is what lets the app paint this gauge's reading onto the reach it measures.
