The combination of lower than normal mountain snowpack and drier and warmer than normal weather conditions have resulted in lower streamflows. Preliminary mean streamflow data for the month of July for selected streamflow gaging stations operated by the U.S. Geological Survey in Wyoming.
Daily discharges continue to be lower than normal as well.
For example, on July 31, streamflows at 20 of 27 of the satellite-monitored stations in and around Wyoming were less than 75 percent of the historic daily streamflow values. About 150 streamflow data collection stations currently are in operation. The data are collected in cooperation with many local, State, and Federal agencies. The USGS works in cooperation with more than 2,000 organizations across the country to provide reliable, impartial, scientific information to resource managers, planners, and other customers.
