About this gauge

USGS gauge 0209741387 sits on Northeast Creek Tributary and reads everything draining 3.2 square miles of the Haw basin. Its datum sits 259 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 Northeast Creek at Sr1100 near Genlee, NC at 21 square miles, so what passes this gauge is about 15% of the water measured there. Water passing here goes on to Haw River near Moncure, NC. It then enters Jordan Lake at Buoy 9 near Farrington, NC, below which releases set the flow.
