Streamflow from the Water Survey of Canada (Environment and Climate Change Canada), Open Government Licence - Canada, read every six hours. "Usually today" is the median for this calendar date, which we compute from the gauge's own daily record (HYDAT). A gauge tells you how much water is moving, not whether it is fishing well or safe to wade: check the regulations and a current local report before you go.
