Storå

Storå ("Large Stream"), often known as Storen, is Denmark's second-longest creek, measuring 104 kilometers (65 miles). Only Guden is longer. Stor begins southeast of Ikast and winds its way through Herning, Sunds, and rre. It then passes through Nybro, Hodsager, and Holstebro on its way to Nissum Fjord.

Storå is one of longest rivers in Denmark. Guden, Skjern Creek, and Vid Creek are the only creeks with greater water. Water is delivered to Stor in Holstebro city from an area of 825 square kilometers (319 sq mi). This contains the sources of Vegen Creek and Laegrd Creek, both of which run through Holstebro's city center and end in Stor.

Every square meter of the surrounding region receives around 800 litres (210 US gal) of rain and snow every year, equating to 80 centimetres (31 in) of water. Half of it evaporates, and the remainder is carried away by groundwater and surface drainage via Stor.

Water must consequently flow through Holstebro city at a rate of 0.4 m2 x 825 km2 = 330 million m3 per year. This equates to a flow rate of around 10 cubic metres per second (350 cubic feet per second). West Jutland has had a minor rise in rainfall in recent years.
