Rio Grande

Streamflow, conditions and background by watershed segment. Data through November 1, 2026.

Data gaps and disparities

Found automatically in the gauge records behind this river, and notes from a reviewer who checked them against other sources. Gauges need at least 26 weeks of daily data to appear on the Flow tab.

About this river's record

  • Reservoirs changed the river over this record: Elephant Butte (1916), El Vado (1935), Caballo (1938), Abiquiu (1963), Cochiti (1975). Compare periods with that in mind.
  • Elephant Butte Reservoir's segment includes gauges at San Marcial and in the reservoir's Narrows, upstream of the dam. Flow below the dam is reported under Caballo.

  • Corps of Engineers copies, Alameda to Caballo Dam verified
    Reviewed 2026-09-27

    The Corps (CWMS) copies of the gauges from Alameda to San Marcial, and below Elephant Butte and Caballo dams, differ from the USGS daily means by more than 10% on 23 to 64% of shared days, while their medians agree. The report uses USGS and takes at most 9 days per gauge from the Corps, where USGS has no value. The Corps daily values here are averages of its 15-minute readings, which is one likely cause of the day-to-day differences (inferred).

  • Rio Grande At Narrows In Elephant Butte Res., NM verified
    Reviewed 2026-09-27

    This gauge has two separate records: one that ends in September 1957 and one that starts in May 2012. The 55-year gap is real (no data from any agency), not a loss in the archive.

  • National Weather Service copies verified
    Reviewed 2026-09-27

    The NWS feed (last 30 days only) runs about 10 to 12% higher than USGS at Otowi, Cochiti and Taos Junction Bridge. NWS computes flow from stage with its own rating; the report does not use these values where USGS has the day.

Warnings (11)

  • warning: peak conflict Rio Grande Above Us Hwy 380 Nr San Antonio, NM: 1 approved USGS daily value exceed that water year's USGS annual peak, in water year 2016 (e.g. 2,390 cfs on Jun 12, 2016 against a peak of 2,270). A day's mean cannot exceed the year's peak, so one of the two USGS records is wrong for those years; the daily values are kept.

Values removed (154)

A reading is removed automatically only when it is impossible (for example, a daily mean above the highest flow USGS recorded that water year). Low and zero flows are never removed: rivers here really do dry up.
