Does anybody know if there is a real-time website for flows out of Scofield? If so, can you send the link to me. Thanks

Click on the water you want to see in Utah.
They have it for Arizona also as well as every other state.
They take info from approximately 1.5 million sites in the U.S. so info for just about anywhere.

I have looked at that site before and can only see the flows going into Scofield, like fish creek, winter quarters canyon and a close stream with the White river near the summit. Do they actually have a reading from the dam down, closer then Price River in Woodside. I hope this doesn't make Arizona people seem really picky, the carp down here don't mind flows too much.

Yea, the USGS site shows only Upper Fish Creek, Mud Creek and White River but not Lower Fish Creek. But I know I have seen a site showing the flows out of Scofield but I don't remember the exact location. I think it was in the Bureau of Reclamation site. Let us know if you find it.

You can use this site. However, it is not exactly "real time". Meaning it is a few days old and sometimes a few weeks old. But, it is the only thing that I have been able to find.

1) To get the release flows from Scofield, choose "Scofield Reservoir" in the drop down list.
2) Then click on the "Choose Dates" button.
3) Then choose the latest date that you want. For now, just click the "View Charts for Last 40 Days" button.
4) Then click on the "Release" link just above the graph.
You will then see how the flows out of the dam have been doing recently. Right now, it is about a week behind in data, unfortunately. In the summer, it is usually only a day or two behind. But, at least you can see recent trends, which is important.
If anybody finds a true "real time" site for this, let us know.

That helps. If I find a real-time site I will post it.
