We were hit with a pretty decent rain storm last night after a day of sproradic rain. Most of the rivers in the system have risen and just begun to drop back this morning. We have quite a bit of water moving down towards Delaware Bay so the best and possibly only wading option is above Oquaga Creek on the Upper West Branch. Below the feeders most of the rivers are off color and colder this morning. We do have a fantastic forecast ahead of us with air temps in the 60’s tomorrow and some sun on Saturday.
