About this gauge

Where this gauge sits in the drainage
Parr Shoals Reservoir at Parr, SC sits immediately upstream, so dam releases rather than rainfall set the flow here. Three gauged sites sit upstream of here. The closest is Broad River near Carlisle, SC, reading 2,780 square miles. This gauge adds the 1,970 square miles that drain in between.
