Delaware River Report / Conditions April 10, 2021

The release from Cannonsville has been dropped and the West Branch flow at Stilesville shows 396 cfs this morning. Most likely that was done in anticipation of the rain this week adding runoff to the system. The last few warm days have really helped the water temps and most of the system is looking good this morning.  The warm nights really help.  We’ll hit the 70’s today and only drop into the low 50’s overnight.  We should see some cloud cover in the afternoon but no rain until tomorrow.  Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the South.  It looks like a great fishing day.
