This report summarizes stream-temperature data collected by the U.S.
Geological Survey in cooperation with the State of North Carolina during the

of record, 31 percent is monthly records, 50 percent is daily, and 19 percent is
continuous. Table 1 shows average monthly, average annual, and extreme
observed temperatures for the period of record at each location. Table 2, for
stations having continuous water-temperature recorders, shows the following
temperature variables: Average of monthly maximums, average of daily
maximums, average daily, average of daily minimums, and average of monthly
minimums.
