Many prefer the USGS Green @ Palmer gauge, because it reflects actual flow at KP state park, where most kayakers launch.
I prefer the ACE gauge though http://www.nwd-wc.usace.army.mil/dd/common/projects/www/hah.html because it tells me what's going on with inflow and reservoir height, which has a lot to do with what they will be releasing.
In any case, Green looks prime for the weekend. See you out there!

I liked the graphs they used a few years ago, similar to this one but it was more current (this one is two days behind), and had a graph for temperature/precipitation.
You're right, though, this helps get a glimpse on if they're draining or filling, which helps judge what they may do considering weather forecasts.
But for up to date and most accurate for the Gorge: Palmer Guage, and some local knowledge when nessecary.
I can't believe I sacrificed the entire weekend last week for "work." And then get such a shaft this weekend. I won't make that mistake again.
