Strawberry River river
Total streamflow across the Strawberry River was last observed at 108 cfs, and is expected to yield approximately 215 acre-ft of water today; about 47% of normal. River levels are low and may signify a drought. Average streamflow for this time of year is 230 cfs, with recent peaks last observed on 2011-05-29 when daily discharge volume was observed at 1,778 cfs.
Maximum discharge along the river is currently at the Strawberry River Near Duchesne reporting a streamflow rate of 68.6 cfs. This is also the highest stage along the Strawberry River, with a gauge stage of 5.53 ft at this location. This river is monitored from 2 different streamgauging stations along the Strawberry River, the highest being situated at an altitude of 6,052 ft, the Strawberry River At Pinnacles Near Fruitland.

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.

Strawberry River
The Strawberry River is a tributary of the White River, located in north-central Arkansas. The river is approximately 110 miles long and flows through the Ozark Mountains. The river was named after the wild strawberries that grew along its banks. The Strawberry River has several reservoirs and dams, including the Strawberry River Dam and Lake, which was completed in 1923. The lake is used for flood control, irrigation, and recreation. The river is also used for agriculture and supports several species of fish, including smallmouth bass and rainbow trout. The river has a rich history and was used for transportation of goods and people in the 19th century. Today, the river is popular for fishing, kayaking, and hiking.

About the Strawberry River
Where does the data for the Strawberry 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.
