“High” and “low” are historical, not recreational
For the closest gauges, current discharge is compared with approved USGS daily percentiles for this calendar date. “High for this date” means hydrologically unusual compared with the gauge record. It does not mean runnable, fishable, wadable, or safe.
NOAA forecast appears only on a real match
The tool matches a USGS site number to NOAA’s National Water Prediction Service. If the IDs match, official flood categories, impacts and a forecast crest can appear. If they do not, the card stays honestly observation-only.
