<br /> <br />largest excesses above 5,000 cfs. Sublette gage ran from 1926 . <br /> <br />through 1955; however, records are missing from April 1942 through <br /> <br />September 1943, Therefore, cDmparison of 1942 discharges in April, <br /> <br />May, and June at Kersey and WeldDna gages could not be made. <br /> <br />Weldona gage began in 1953; 1973 preliminary discharge records indi- <br /> <br /> <br />cate 138,700 acre-fDot loss in May between Kersey and Weldona gages <br /> <br />and 168,700 acre-foot loss in June.
