About this gauge
USGS gauge 03418420 sits on the Cumberland River and reads everything draining 8,095 square miles of the Upper Cumberland-Cordell Hull Reservoir basin. Its datum sits essentially at sea level NAVD88.
Where this gauge sits in the drainage
Cordell Hull Reservoir sits immediately upstream, so dam releases rather than rainfall set the flow here. No gauged site sits above this one on the mainstem, so this is the first published reading on the river.
TVA dams near this gauge
TVA's Cordell Hull Dam sits 1 mile from this gauge and its releases set what this gauge reads. Planned generation, lake level and tailwater elevation for it load below when TVA has published them.
