Posting an update/correction on the Rock. The Rock is now at 1.8 at 1130 this morning. My earlier assumption was based on an increase at the Hewlett gage, and that reading was at 2am- when we are at daily peak with diurnal flows, even on cold cloudy days.

Happy Boating.

I was not able to look at the rock this mooring. However, there is a very small rise in the Hewlett Gulch gage from yesterday. I am guessing the Rock is either still at 2.0 or just slightly higher. The differences in the rest of the gages on the main stem are statistically insignificant.

Currently 36˚F, overcast and damp.
