Upper Yough Flow Curve

Description: Check the gage for the pre-release Friendsville reading. Add 600 cfs, and read across to get the Sang Run release level.
Example: let's say Friendsville is running 3.0 ft (440 cfs, from the blue curve). Add 600, and you get 1040 cfs. From the red curve, that looks like about 2.3 feet-- a healthy, but reasonable level.
