About this gauge

USGS gauge 021313485 sits on Buffalo Creek and reads everything draining 10 square miles of the Lynches basin. Its datum sits 350 feet above sea level NAVD88.

Where this gauge sits in the drainage

No gauged site sits above this one on the mainstem, so this is the first published reading on the river. Downstream the next reading comes from Lynches River near Bishopville, SC at 675 square miles, so what passes this gauge is about 2% of the water measured there.
