About this gauge

USGS gauge 02484760 sits on Fannegusha Creek and reads everything draining 52 square miles of the Middle Pearl-Strong basin. Its datum sits 305 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 Pearl River at Ross Barnett Reservoir, MS at 3,050 square miles, so what passes this gauge is about 2% of the water measured there. Water passing here goes on to Pearl River at Hwy 25 at Jackson, MS and Pearl River at Jackson, MS.
