Despite showers and thunderstorms, our area rivers and streams are still below the average level for this time of year; June has always been the lushest month, with plenty of water to draw upon to carry us through the hotter months of summer, but this year started out very dry (thankfully ending up with some much-needed rain.)
Beaverkill Stream Report - June 20, 2023
This past week’s rain was much anticipated and welcomed, and added a bit of a respite to the parched earth and low flows of our area streams. Last Tuesday, June 13, the Beaverkill just about reached the median average flow (300 cubic feet per second, with the 109-year median average of 306 cfs for that day) before receding back down to a lower flow.
