Average discharge at this place is 4 m.s. Because of daily flows variability and strong influence of flood events on average values, this quantity is very representative of what is commonly observed in streams. We, therefore, prefer the term median flow to characterize the normal flow of

Low water occur during the dry season (July to November) in summer (July to September), resulting in a decrease in average monthly flow to 1.1 m.s in September.

The maximum flood was observed during the tropical depression on February 6, 1972. Its flow was then measured at 3720 m.s.
