Official Warnings

No official warning is in effect here right now.

  • Mill Creek At Milan, IL: flow 29.1 ft³/s · within the usual October monthly average for this gauge · U.S. Geological Survey · 1 h ago
  • Mill Creek At Milan, IL: water level 2.02 ft · within the usual October monthly average for this gauge · U.S. Geological Survey · 1 h ago
  • Rock River Near Joslin, IL: flow 5,540 ft³/s · within the usual October monthly average for this gauge · U.S. Geological Survey · 1 h ago
  • Rock River Near Joslin, IL: water level 6.44 ft · within the usual October monthly average for this gauge · U.S. Geological Survey · 1 h ago

River levels are shown against their usual, but not yet judged. A gauge’s usual here is its range of October monthly averages; the reading is the latest 15-minute value, which a passing rain or dry spell can carry outside that range. So no river gauge makes this county Unusual For Here until we compare each day with the same day’s history.

A gauge’s usual is its range of October monthly averages over its record (USGS).

Background
