Delaware River Report / Conditions July 13, 2021

We were hit with more storms overnight and the all of the rivers are high and off color.  The clearest and lowest water will be right below both Cannonsville and Pepacton. Short sections but they are the best you will find today.  It will take the lower rivers a day or two to clear if we don’t get any additional rain.  If you do head upstream olives and sulphurs.  Plus a couple of isonychias and cahills.  Today will be cloudy with a chance of isolated thunderstorms in the afternoon.  78 degrees with 5 – 10 mph from the South.  Hopefully the storms slide north or south of us.
