Over 8 years of record, flow on Mongaup River peaks in January, when the median runs about 385 ft³/s, and falls to its lowest in September at around 111 ft³/s. Today's 130 is close to that low. The band on the chart is where the middle 60% of years fall, so a reading inside it is ordinary for the date and one outside it is not.
