Kevin describes the scene:

The water at Great Falls was flowing fast and was a bit muddy from our recent rain. The river was below flood stage but considered in the "action" range. I saw no kayakers shooting the falls, but Great Falls Park was full of visitors to observe the waterfall, to enjoy the beautiful weather, and to hike the trails.

New feature: Water levels can be tracked in our new Forecast Lab, where we have a drop down menu with multiple river and creek forecast locations. Kevin's photographed water levels were indeed elevated.
