The South Fork was flowing at 3,400 cfs at Miranda Thursday and rising slowly. It’s predicted to drop Friday and Saturday and get down to 2,200 cfs, which could produce some green water up higher in the watershed. It will be short-lived however, as rain coming Saturday evening will put it back on the rise and blow it back out. The 10-day ensemble prediction has the river peaking at 21,000 cfs Tuesday. If the rain stops mid-next week, it could be fishable towards the end of the first week of March.
