Its flow is affected by precipitation, snowmelt, and human activities such as dam releases. The river is fed by several tributaries, including Jennings Run and Savage River, and is dammed by the Jennings Randolph Lake. Seasonal trends show peak flows in the spring and fall, while summer months see lower flows.
