Surface Flow Characteristics
Pennsylvania experiences a humid continental climate with average precipitation of around 42 inches per year. Major surface flows include the Susquehanna River, Delaware River, and Ohio River. The Susquehanna River Basin encompasses 27,500 square miles and is home to numerous reservoirs and dams including the Conowingo Dam and Raystown Lake. Major tributaries of the Susquehanna include the Juniata River and West Branch Susquehanna River. The Delaware River Basin spans multiple states and contains several reservoirs and dams, such as the Francis E. Walter Dam and Beltzville Lake. The Ohio River Basin covers parts of western Pennsylvania and includes the Allegheny River and Monongahela River. Watershed and snowpack data can impact hydrology in these areas, particularly in relation to flooding and drought conditions.
