It hasn't updated since early this morning. I'm hoping to get down there tomorrow or Wednesday and would like to have an idea of what the level will be. Thanks for any input.

I noticed that too and if you call the old Tot gauge phone number, it's an old reading. I can send an email to Jason at USGS.

Looks like most of the Arkansas USGS gauges haven't updated in a while. I let Jaysson Funkhouser at USGS know about the problem. He emailed back and said they should be fixed tomorrow.

Since the gauge is still broke - here is info I got from Sabrina yesterday. They went and checked Ed Banks around 4pm and the water was about 3 feet over the bridge. Apparently, it rose all day long.

high with current and an occasional boater floating by)-

I just got from driving down there. Couldn't find anyone to paddle with. At 11:20 this morning there was about 4 inches of water flowing OVER the sand bar bridge above the falls. I'm thinking it will still be in the 4 ft. range tomorrow and I plan to head back down there in the morning. If anyone wants to hook up please post back.

Did you not run into Billy Williams, Sabrina and Richard? She told me they were going down there today and would run Baker again if it was still there and if not, the Tot.

sounds like a plan, Renee, I didn't really look around for anybody. When I saw how high it was I decided to head back to town and get some work done so I can go back down tomorrow and make a day of it.
