Peaks

Annual peak flow values are the maximum instantaneous streamflow values recorded at a particular site for the entire water year from October 1 to September 30. Note that the annual peak flow value may not occur at the same time the maximum water level occurs due to conditions such as backwater, tidal fluctuations, etc.
