Streamflows are returning to normal seasonal values statewide Monday, including the drought plagued north. As of this update, there are no extreme low flows or high flows in Georgia. More to follow.
Drought situation from USGS Waterwatch 7-day average streamflow compared with historic flow
Mississippi basin's Upper Coosa River Whitfield and Murray Counties accelerated to severe hydrologic drought status Friday, remains so Monday morning. The Atlantic basin's Upper Savannah River watershed remains at extreme drought Monday from Rabun to north Hart County. None of the streamflow gages of the state are recording low flows, there is one monitor recording much below normal flow levels in the Upper Savannah, on the Tallulah River near Clayton. Updates in progress, more to follow.
USGS seven-day average streamflows at each monitoring location are rated against the historic average flow volume for this date, determining the drought map for the day. The drought map shows areas rated below normal, moderate drought, severe drought and extreme drought.

Data are provisional and subject to revision until they have been thoroughly reviewed and received final approval. Current condition data relayed by satellite or other telemetry are automatically screened to not display improbable values until they can be verified.
Provisional data may be inaccurate due to instrument malfunctions or physical changes at the measurement site. Subsequent review based on field inspections and measurements may result in significant revisions to the data.
Data users are cautioned to consider carefully the provisional nature of the information before using it for decisions that concern personal or public safety or the conduct of business that involves substantial monetary or operational consequences. Information concerning the accuracy and appropriate uses of these data or concerning other hydrologic data may be obtained from the USGS.
