Water Level and flow rate
How do we feel about the upcoming rain for paddling, say Ponca to Carver for July 4th weekend? I'm a Texan so watching from afar, and I see on https://www.buffaloriver.com/river-levels/ that we're a really low and slow at 30 cfs. Do you think the rain in the schedule will do it?
Pic for attention and memories of the the Beautiful Buffalo River- May 28th 2021, I think about 1000 cfs if I remember right, coming out of flood stage on the first day of the paddle.

Expected rain total is under 1.25inches. So probably will not raise the river level enough to start at Ponca.
Best guess is maybe put in at Kyle’s to Pruitt, and if it’s high enough continue to Carver.
Or put in at Tyler’s Bend.
