i know its a measurement of how high the water is but where do they get the number from? i know in new orleans the flood stage is 17ft. thats 17ft from what? where is 0ft at. and dont say sea level because if that was the case, the river from greenville to memphis would be flowing backwards due to the gauge in greenville says 44ft and in memphis says 25ft.

if it were taken from the bottom river, the river would be empty when it gets to 0, ive saw it in the negative before and ships are still able to go up the river.
and there is no lock and d**n on the river in N.O. im a towboat pilot on the mississippi
