Current River Conditions in Texas

Dam Release Rates and Current Flow Rates

The speed of Texas rivers is controlled by many different factors, including recent rainfall, water releases from upriver dams, and flows from springs.

These factors can change, and different flows make for different kinds of trips. A high flow may be too fast for floating, but perfect for rafting trips.

Check the flow before you arrive, and call a local outfitter to confirm.

Guadalupe Flows

The Guadalupe fluctuates greatly. Get Guadalupe river flow rates here.

Comal Flows

The Comal is spring fed and doesn't change nearly as much as other rivers. Unlike some spring-fed rivers, it is a perfect 70 degrees.

The latest Comal flow rate can be found at the Army Corps of Engineers site.

Frio Flows

The Frio is also spring fed, by icy cold springs. Recent data can be found at the USGS site.
