What this means

Little Lee Creek near Nicut is running below normal at −0.34 ft.

It has barely moved over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. In the last month it has stayed between −0.36 ft and −0.28 ft.

Fall is often low-water season on rivers, and it usually takes a few days of steady rain to change that.
