How we calculate this
This is a transparent outlook, not a precise forecast. We take the waterfall's current flow strength (how it ranks against its historical normal for today, from the nearest USGS stream gauge), carry that ranking forward along the gauge's seasonal curve, and nudge it for forecast rain. Confidence is highest for the next day or two and falls further out. Always check official conditions and your own judgment before visiting — high flows can be dangerous.

Weather Forecast
The Terrain, Seen by LiDAR
Aircraft-mounted lasers measured this ground to within inches. Trees and buildings are digitally stripped away, leaving the bare shape of the land the water has carved.
The ground through the falls loses about 152 feet in steep steps rather than one leap. The ground at the falls is roughly 2,754 feet above sea level.
The whole reach is steep: about 119 feet of descent in the 500 feet above the falls and another 164 feet in the 500 feet below. The falls face south and sit in full sun for most of the day, best photographed early or late.
