The river's main constituents are rainfall and snowmelt, which are influenced by tributaries such as the Little Washita River and Rock Creek. The Lake Chickasha and Lake Burtschi dams also affect the river's flow. Seasonally, the river experiences high flows in the spring due to snowmelt, while summer and fall bring lower flows.
