About this gauge

USGS gauge 02266300 sits on Reedy Creek and reads everything draining 85 square miles of the Kissimmee basin. Its datum sits 66 feet above sea level NGVD29. Daily flow has been on record here since 1966, 60 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 Reedy Creek at S-40, near Loughman, FL at 174 square miles, so what passes this gauge is about 49% of the water measured there. Water passing here goes on to Reedy Creek near Loughman, FL and Reedy Creek at State Hwy 531 near Poinsianna, FL. It then enters Lake Hatchineha near Lake Wales, Fla, below which releases set the flow.
