Ice-cover determination: 5 yr recurrence flood: 4969 m3/sec (from Log Pearson III analysis)
Status Codes:  1 = Low flow, 2 = Normal flow, 3 = Flood, 4 = Major Flood 4878 m3/sec (from Gumbel Extreme Value analysis)
Comparison Station Information:  Bevoay (1389090)           Contributing Area: 7280 sq mi 16866 sq km
(Data from this gaging station are used for the calibration to discharge, with an adjustment for different contributing areas)
Notes: Rating equation is based on monthly mean, maximum, and minimum M/C compared to gaging station discharge values.
