PERIOD OF DAILY RECORD1.--WATER TEMPERATURE: October 1967 to current year (no winter record for water years 1969-76).
INSTRUMENTATION1.--Water-temperature satellite and telephone telemeter provides 15-minute-interval readings. From October 1975 to September 1995, water-temperature recorder provided one-hour-interval readings. Prior to October 1975, water-temperature recorder provided continuous readings.
REMARKS1.--Temperature readings prior to Oct. 1, 2007, rounded to the nearest 0.5 °C.
EXTREMES FOR PERIOD OF DAILY RECORD1.--WATER TEMPERATURE: Prior to Oct. 1, 2007--Maximum (water years 1968-75, 1980-81, 1983, 1985-96, 1998-2001, 2003-07), 32.5 °C, July 9, 10, 1993; minimum (water years 1968, 1977-2007), 0.0 °C, on many days during winter periods, each year except water years 1980-82. WATER TEMPERATURE: After Oct. 1, 2007--Maximum, 33.5 °C, July 27, 29, 2020; minimum (water years 2008, 2010-current), -0.2 °C, on several days during 2022 winter period.
