context_page_description: Stony Clove Creek is a 10.3-mile-long creek in the Catskill Mountains in New York. It is a tributary of Esopus Creek, which in turn is a tributary of the Hudson River. It joins the Esopus in the village of Phoenicia, and has two smaller tributaries up north of Phoenicia.

The station in Chichester in operation since 1997, 1.8 miles (2.9 km) upstream from the Esopus, had a maximum discharge of 14,300 cubic feet (400 m³) per second on August 28, 2011, as Hurricane Irene passed through the area. It had a minimum discharge of 3.1 cubic feet (0.088 m³) per second on October 3, 2014. A former station in operation from February 1997 to August 2007, 1.3 miles (2.1 km) upstream from the Esopus, had a maximum discharge of 13,000 cubic feet (370 m³) per second on April 2, 2005, and a minimum discharge of 3.7 cubic feet (0.10 m³) per second from September 20–22, 2002.
