Streamflow discharge was last observed at 4 cfs, and a gauge height of 1.55 feet.
With the
% decrease since yesterday,
the streamflow average over the past 10 days is 7 .

The main constituents of the flow are runoff from precipitation and groundwater discharge. There are no major tributaries or dams affecting the gauge, but there are several smaller streams that contribute to the Fern Creek watershed. The flow at the gauge varies seasonally, with higher flow during periods of heavy rainfall and lower flow during drier months. One interesting fact about the hydrology of the Fern Creek watershed is that it is home to several unique species of fish, including the Kentucky darter and the blackside dace.
