| Noticed yesterday while checking the gauge at Milsap that the gauge is reading 6.35' while the internet gauge is reading 7.1'. The level felt more like a 500-600cfs while the internet is reading over 900cfs.

| CDEC's MER gauge (reported by Dreamflows as Mi. Feather - At Milsap Bar) is currently stuck. It's being reported as 8.08 feet and 2003 cfs in the flow listings, though the graph doesn't display a flow. I've contacted CDEC about this and will post what they say.

| CDEC responded thusly: "Our contact at the Oroville Field Division has been contacted. Currently, I do not have an estimate for when it will be fixed. Thank you for alerting us". This could take a while, so I'm suppressing flows for this gauge on the reports for now. If any of you notice that the gauge appears to be back, please let me know ...

| CDEC reports that "The gage for Merrimac is operational as of yesterday". This gauge is back on the Dreamflows reports.

Yes, seems CDEC has a configuration issue with both their graph and their hourly data ... To answer your question, DF gets a custom feed from CDEC, however you should see the same data values here:
http://cdec2.water.ca.gov/cgi-progs/queryFx?MER
The hourly data in the table isn't being reliably reported right now, but if you scroll down far enough, you'll get to the event (15-minute) flow data.
