Gauge Information

Gauge Description:

The flow reported here is from the USGS gauge at Belva (below the takeout for the Lower Gauley). This reflects what was being released from Summersville Dam 7-8 hours ago plus what was coming in from the Meadow River 5-7 hours ago and what was coming in from any other streams below Summersville Dam.

Another view is to look at the virtual gauge for the Gauley below the Meadow. This gauge is the sum of the current flow from Summersville Dam and the current flow from the Meadow River. It does not include the flow coming from any other creeks below Summersville Dam.
