USGS 073814675
Streamflow discharge was last observed at 4,150 cfs, and a gauge height of 3.05 feet.
With the
% decrease since yesterday,
the streamflow average over the past 10 days is 4,416 .
Weather today, Tomorrow,
There are no major dams or tributaries that significantly affect the gauge measurements. Seasonally, the flow tends to be higher in the spring due to increased rainfall and snowmelt, while the flow decreases in the summer and fall. Interesting facts about the hydrology of the area include the fact that the Atchafalaya River is considered by some to be the "most important river in America" due to its role in regulating flooding and supporting diverse ecosystems in Louisiana.
