Loading the latest daily flow…
Daily average flow at River Wye at Ashford, compared with the station's own record since 1995 for the same time of year. The Environment Agency publishes each day's average the next morning, so this describes the latest complete day; the live level below shows any change since. A rule of thumb from flow alone, not a guarantee. No flow forecast: in testing, river models missed most blown-out days on these rivers.

Ashford in the Water is upstream of Bakewell. This station supplies river level, not a flow or water-temperature reading.
Water temperature unavailable in this panel. Air temperature below is the weather forecast.
Readings are provisional. A reading older than 6 hours is marked out of date. Level and flow alone do not establish whether a beat is fishable.
