Water Data for the Nation inventory

Monitoring location 05289800 is associated with a Stream in Hennepin County, Minnesota. Current conditions of Discharge, Gage height, Precipitation, and more are available. Water data back to 1965 are available online.

Precipitation data are temporary and will only be displayed for 120 days. Retrievals of older data will not be available. Although rainfall instrumentation is calibrated least annually, the temporary classification means that documented routine inspections and other quality assurance measures may not be performed that would make the data suitable for archival, retrieval, or future use in general scientific or interpretive studies.
