Additional Information Collapse
Note 1: New Ensemble Streamflow Prediction(ESP) forecasts are now available for this forecast point on this webpage. ESP forecasts extended probabilities of stage and flow based on current river levels and long range climate forecasts. Note 2: On 16 Mar 2010 the Suwannee River Water Management District transferred ownership of this site to the USGS. Data for this site may now be obtained from the USGS NWIS web pages or on the NWS HADS web site. This data is no longer available in the NWS SRWMD Collective MIARR8TAE. The USGS displays their river level data from Lamont relative to MSL. The NWS displays data and forecasts from this site relative to a Gage Zero elevation of 42.9 ft. Please add 42.9 ft to NWS data when comparing with USGS data available from the USGS NWIS web site.
