Where this gauge sits in the drainage

Two gauged sites sit upstream of here. The closest is Little River near Adel, GA, reading 577 square miles. This gauge adds the 199 square miles that drain in between. Downstream the next reading comes from Withlacoochee River at US 84, near Quitman, GA at 1,480 square miles, so what passes this gauge is about 52% of the water measured there.
