Observations

  • 22 August 2024

    Belhaven Beach by Maureen McGuire

    No rain had fallen in the last few days as far as I know.

    Westbrook Rd by Will McDearman

    Very low flow if at all, test site virtually a pool at 0.75 m deep, stage from USGS gauge downstream at Hwy 25. Testing done at alternative upstream site, just upstream from abandoned Lake Hico water intake structure. Alternative site is biologically equivalent to regular test site. Alternative site not typically used because of very steep vertical river banks that can be slippery and are difficult to descend. Alternative site used on this test because of very dry weather and ability to descend.

    Fannye Cook Natural Area North by Will McDearman

    Stage at USGS gauge downstream at Hwy 25. Low summer flow. Little if any actual current in river. Test site a pool on side of river at 0.75 m deep.

    Fannye Cook Natural Area by Will McDearman

    Very little flow, if at all, slight dribble, thru road culvert from upstream to downstream. No substantial rain in weeks. Test site virtually a pool. Lots of algae. Little if any volume flowing into Pearl River downstream in these conditions.

    First Pentecostal Church North by Will McDearman

    Very low flow, no substantial rain in past several weeks, small contribution downstream to Pearl River relative to total volume.

    Pearl River at Carroll Loop by Theresa Thornhill

    I will email you a video of spring water running from inside the bank of the Pearl into the river. It is probably happening in other areas but it is exactly where I test. It is just SLIGHTLY downstream from where I test.

    East Spillway by LeAnn Nealey

    Much cooler and drier today: 1 gate open, river up slightly; some herons; super blue moon still showing in early morning sky

    OB Curtis by Jennifer Weaver

    Water had a green tint to it that was new for this summer, and it was difficult to see the bottom.
