Water Data for the Nation inventory

Monitoring location 08111058 is associated with a Lake, Reservoir, Impoundment in Grimes County, Texas. Current conditions of Lake or reservoir water surface elevation above NGVD 1929 and Precipitation are available. Water data back to 2017 are available online.

Rainfall monitoring sites operated by the USGS in Texas are strictly for operational purposes. Precipitation data, if available for this station, are temporary and will only be displayed for 120 days. Precipitation data will NOT be available for retrieval following the 120-day display period. The temporary classification means that documented routine inspections and other quality assurance measures are not performed that would make the data acceptable for archival, retrieval, or future use in general scientific or interpretive studies.
