    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.

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

  • 15 August 2024

    Old Trace Park by Jennifer Sigrest

    Temperature drop at sampling time due to rains in the vicinity. Recent days have been extremely hot. The only people in the park were a group of disc golfers. One asked if I was a storm chaser. I explained I was part of an effort sampling water quality along the Pearl River watershed and he said, “so in a way you are a storm chaser.” I had to agree!

    Pelahatchie Creek by Stacey Knepple
