Delaware River Report: July 18, 2022

We have some light rain falling this morning but not enough to affect the flows. The river looks clear out in Home Pool under the fog and we will post an update if there are any changes. Wunderground is calling for thunderstorms this afternoon so we may still see some extra water. With the cloud cover today, make sure to bring your olives as well as the sulphurs.

The East Branch at Fishs Eddy, the Beaverkill at Cooks Falls, and the Mainstem at Lordville all peaked over 70 degrees yesterday. It’s time to give these sections a break until we get cooler temps.
