Temporarily re-linking French Broad Section 9 (FB9) gauge

[DRC]

For those in WNC, we've noticed that the Rollins/Marshall USGS gauge is
not properly reflecting rainfall bubbles that show up on the Asheville
and Hot Springs gauges, and the Marshall gauge tends to get stuck
sometimes in general. It may need to be re-calibrated/re-profiled. I
have added Hot Springs as a second gauge on the FB9 reach and
temporarily set it as the primary gauge. Please let me know if there
are any objections to that. Once Marshall starts behaving again, we can
make it the primary again, since it is usually a better reflection of
the flow between Barnard and Stackhouse (above the Big Laurel confluence.)

It looks like USGS did some work on the gauge and maybe this is resolved. The data gets official again on June 21 when you graph the past month on the USGS site.

Yeah, I heard the same thing on a FB group, so I re-linked Marshall as the primary.  It seems to correlate properly now, whereas before, it was consistently reading higher than the downstream (Hot Springs) gauge and wasn't showing rainfall spikes.  Got skunked due to that a few weeks ago-- thought it was 2100 when it was really 1400.  :)
