Delaware River Report: May 7, 2025

We got hit hard with rain again yesterday afternoon. The release from Cannonsville is 40 cfs with 2,423 cfs spilling over the top. All of the rivers are high and off color. There is no safe wading in the system. Hopefully any additional rain misses us. Aside from the reservoir spill there is a lot of water coming in from the feeders. If there are no debris floating down creating danger spots floating is possible if you’re confident on the oars. Just be very careful

Today will be 64 degrees with possible afternoons showers. Total rainfall during the day should be .03″. Wind will be 5 – 10 mph from the West.
