Conecuh River Flow
As of 2026-08-04, the Conecuh River is flowing at a combined 1,197 cfs across 4 USGS streamgauges — 43% of normal for this time of year, versus a seasonal average of 2,757 cfs.
Total streamflow across the Conecuh River was last observed at 1,197 cfs, and is expected to yield approximately 2,374 acre-ft of water today; about 43% of normal. River levels are low and may signify a drought. Average streamflow for this time of year is 2,757 cfs, with recent peaks last observed on 2015-12-30 when daily discharge volume was observed at 77,010 cfs.
Maximum discharge along the river is currently at the Conecuh River At State Hwy 41 Near Brewton reporting a streamflow rate of 972 cfs. This is also the highest stage along the Conecuh River, with a gauge stage of 9.84 ft at this location. This river is monitored from 4 different streamgauging stations along the Conecuh River, the highest being situated at an altitude of 275 ft, the Conecuh River At Brantley Al.

Conecuh River
The Conecuh River is a 258-mile-long river that flows through Alabama and Florida. It is the largest river in the state of Alabama and has played an essential role in the region's history, serving as a transportation route for Native Americans and early settlers. The river's hydrology is influenced by several significant tributaries, including the Sepulga River, Patsaliga Creek, and Murder Creek. The Conecuh River is also home to several reservoirs, including Point A Lake and Gantt Lake, which provide drinking water, flood control, and recreational opportunities to nearby communities. The river's agricultural uses include irrigation for crops like cotton and peanuts, while recreational activities such as fishing, boating, and camping are popular among locals and tourists.

About the Conecuh River
How is the Conecuh River flowing right now?
As of 2026-08-04, the Conecuh River is flowing at a combined 1,197 cfs across its USGS streamgauges, about 43% of normal for this date. The live per-gauge breakdown and 24-hour trend are shown above.
Is the Conecuh River running high or low right now?
Check the percent-of-normal figure on this page: above 100% means the river is running higher than its seasonal average for the date, below 100% means lower. The per-gauge table shows which reaches are highest and lowest.
Where does the data for the Conecuh River come from?
Streamflow and gauge stage data are sourced from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Water Information System. The aggregate flow shown at the top of the page is computed by Snoflo as the sum of all monitored gauges along the river.
How is "percent of normal" calculated?
Today's aggregate streamflow is compared to the historical average aggregate streamflow on this calendar day across the river's full record. 100% means right on average; values above 100% indicate above-normal flow (wet year); values below indicate below-normal (dry year or drought).
Why are some gauges showing very different flows?
Gauges along a river measure flow at different points: headwater gauges read what's coming off the snowpack or mountain runoff; downstream gauges integrate everything upstream, including tributary inputs. Wide spreads usually mean a tributary is contributing significantly between gauges.
What's the elevation profile chart showing?
Each bubble is one gauge along the river, plotted by streamflow (x-axis) and elevation (y-axis), sized by gauge stage. Reading top-down traces the river from headwaters to mouth -- you can see flow build as elevation drops.
Can I get alerts when a specific gauge crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app on a per-gauge basis. Open any individual streamgauge from the table above and favorite it to set a discharge threshold.
