Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Muddy river

Turbidity is also an informative measure.  Here's a picture of some turbidity standards (hope this doesn't violate the commerical sites prohibition - just a picture of cloudy water in beakers - but if so, my apologies) for comparison.  Makes the last reading of 9.8 seem alright, especially if it keeps trending downwards.

USGS has added a lot of sensors at LF.  This 32295 CDOM, fluorescence, <5 ft from riverbed> may be the one to follow.

The Little Falls Gauge now (I think this feature is new???) has a reading on turbidity, this needs to be near zero (<5) for the river to look clear. It's hard to say exactly when it will be in good shape, but I would guess it should definitely be fine by Saturday.

The canal was quite muddy yesterday but somewhat fishable.
