Gauge Reading0.8299999833106995 ft at Amicalola Creek-Lower

The upper parking lot is being renovated with a big retention wall. No one was actually working there when we arrived, but access is limited. It didn't seem like it would take much longer to finish it. Also, I'm suspect of the gauge. The week prior showed a steady downward level, however, lots of thunderstorms in the area. When we arrived everything was moist, and after we took out, there was a heavy rain for 45 min that never registered on the gauge. 0.83 on the gauge was pretty good for Steele Bridge to 53. Beautiful, short piece - no problems.
