About this gauge

USGS gauge 03539600 sits on Daddys Creek and reads everything draining 139 square miles of the Emory basin. Its datum sits 1,445 feet above sea level NAVD88. Daily flow has been on record here since 1957, 38 years of it.

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 Obed River near Lancing, TN at 518 square miles, so what passes this gauge is about 27% of the water measured there. Water passing here goes on to Emory River at Oakdale, TN.
