Neversink River river
Total streamflow across the Neversink River was last observed at 658 cfs, and is expected to yield approximately 1,305 acre-ft of water today; about 61% of normal. River levels are low and may signify a drought. Average streamflow for this time of year is 1,073 cfs, with recent peaks last observed on 2011-08-29 when daily discharge volume was observed at 46,200 cfs.
Maximum discharge along the river is currently at the Neversink River At Godeffroy Ny reporting a streamflow rate of 325 cfs. However, the streamgauge with the highest stage along the river is the Neversink River Near Claryville Ny with a gauge stage of 6.7 ft. This river is monitored from 4 different streamgauging stations along the Neversink River, the highest being situated at an altitude of 1,552 ft, the Neversink River Near Claryville Ny.

Maximum streamflow discharge by year
The single highest aggregate discharge recorded each year. Spotting the multi-year trend reveals droughts vs. wet cycles long before the headline daily flow does.

Streamflow elevation profile
Each bubble is one gauge along the river, plotted by current streamflow (x-axis) vs elevation (y-axis), sized by gauge stage. Reading top-to-bottom traces the river from headwaters down to its mouth -- you can see flow accumulate as elevation drops.

Neversink River
The Neversink River is a 55-mile-long river located in southeastern New York State. The river has a rich history, including being the site of the Neversink Reservoir, which was created in 1953 to provide drinking water for New York City. The river is known for its hydrology, which includes a large amount of rainfall and snowmelt. It also has several dams and reservoirs, including the Neversink Dam, which was built in 1953 to create the Neversink Reservoir. The Neversink River is used for recreational activities, including fishing, kayaking, and camping. It is also used for agricultural purposes, such as irrigation for farmers. Despite its many uses, the Neversink River faces challenges, including pollution and threats to its aquatic habitat.
Track the Neversink River in the Snoflo app
Set per-gauge push alerts (e.g. "alert me when flow at the Russian R Nr Healdsburg crosses 5,000 cfs"), and Snoflo's iOS app pushes the moment USGS reports the crossing.
About the Neversink River
Where does the data for the Neversink River come from?
Streamflow and gauge stage data are sourced from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Water Information System. The aggregate flow shown at the top of the page is computed by Snoflo as the sum of all monitored gauges along the river.
How is "percent of normal" calculated?
Today's aggregate streamflow is compared to the historical average aggregate streamflow on this calendar day across the river's full record. 100% means right on average; values above 100% indicate above-normal flow (wet year); values below indicate below-normal (dry year or drought).
Why are some gauges showing very different flows?
Gauges along a river measure flow at different points: headwater gauges read what's coming off the snowpack or mountain runoff; downstream gauges integrate everything upstream, including tributary inputs. Wide spreads usually mean a tributary is contributing significantly between gauges.
What's the elevation profile chart showing?
Each bubble is one gauge along the river, plotted by streamflow (x-axis) and elevation (y-axis), sized by gauge stage. Reading top-down traces the river from headwaters to mouth -- you can see flow build as elevation drops.
Can I get alerts when a specific gauge crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app on a per-gauge basis. Open any individual streamgauge from the table above and favorite it to set a discharge threshold.
