Gauge Description:

Note: The gauge refered to in this section is a virtual "regional" gauge. It is in a nearby watershed but the proximity of the gauge and the river characteristics are similar. These gauges work best in the spring or wide area rain events. Do not rely on this gauge for localized rain events such as summertime thunderstorm activity. Current minimum run level for this stretch is still to be verified.

The Upper Suncook is a spring run river usually runable in March and April.
The New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services draws down Suncook Lake in the Fall and may bring the river up enough for a low water run. Drawdown of the lake would not be reflected on the above gage reading.
