Twin Creek (Ohio)
From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
Twin Creek is a stream in the U.S. state of Ohio. The 46.2-mile (74.4 km) long stream is a tributary of Great Miami River.[1] Lesley Run is a tributary of Twin Creek.
Twin Creek was so named by the Potawatomi Indians on account of its branches.[2]
At its mouth, the creek's estimated mean annual flow rate is 323.2 cubic feet per second (9.15 m3/s).[3] A USGS stream gauge on the creek near Germantown recorded a mean annual discharge of 286.2 cu ft/s (8.10 m3/s) during water years 1921-2019. The highest daily mean discharge during that period was 8,450 cu ft/s (239 m3/s) on January 22, 1959. The lowest daily mean discharge was 2 cu ft/s (0.057 m3/s) on September 25, 1941.[4]
