"Elrond commanded it...The river of this valley is under his power, and it will rise in anger when he has great need to bar the Ford." The other bit of angry magic at the same time is Glorfindel's: "Caught between fire and water, and seeing an Elf-lord revealed in his wrath,..." The river rising "in anger" sounds more metaphorical than literal. However, it is certainly open to interpretation. In any case, the "anger" is attributed to the river, not to Elrond. Glorfindel was due some wrath about then.
