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.
1-meter lidar shows the creek losing roughly 90 feet through Wenonan Falls over a long run of ledges. Elevation at the pin is about 1,342 feet.
Steep ground runs through the entire stretch: about 171 feet of descent in the 500 feet above the pin and 125 feet in the 500 feet below it. Facing northeast, the falls stay mostly shaded, with soft, even light all day.
