Gauge Information

Gauge Description:

Have painted a new gauge on bridge on downstream center pier. This gauge is equivalent to the old gauge. Minimum is ~.2' and Optimum .8'. Gets pushy with large ledge holes above 1.5'. Drops very quickly after a rain. Usually must run within one day after a big rain. Need a recent heavy rain and a minimum of around 5,500 cfs on Obed and ~1,600 cfs on Daddy's Creek. Best gauge for comparison is the Daddys Creek gauge. I am developing a virtual gauge for Island Creek based on Daddy's Creek flows. Please send in staff levels from runs on Island Creek to compare with Daddys Creek flows.
