Can anyone explain in simple terms for someone with a simple brain exactly how to interpret the levels shown on the Wye and Usk webcam gauges. I have puzzled over them for a long time but neither understand the increments on the two measures or the relationship to the given normal level. Excuse me for being a bit thick. The only time I can make sense of them is when they are completely submerged. ATB, Alan

...are in increments of feet and inches when the water is on 2 it means the river is running at 2 feet. if the rivers normal summer level is 6 inches then the river is running 1 and a half feet above normal summer level. i am sorry to sound sarcastic but it really is that simple. any other info on the wye or usk just shout. jon.

Thanks Wiz. Which gauge am I looking at the large or small?

the large one mate.

Whens the Fownhope one getting fixed???Been down for a week .

Thanks for sorting me out. Easy, as you say. Regards, Alan

I'm glad i'm not the only one who looked at them like a dog watching someone do a card trick !

In then end i rang up those nice people at the W&U office and said "please tell me, what exactly is this telling me ?"

So now i know exactly when the river is unfishable , but i generally conclude - B*llocks I'll go anyway !
