Noonday Creek

Noonday Creek is a stream that runs through northern Cobb County and into southern Cherokee County, Georgia. Beginning near the northeast side of Kennesaw Mountain (part of a ridge dividing the county's two major watersheds), it flows east and northeast by Town Center at Cobb and under Interstate 575, then due north past the Noonday community, and across the county line into Woodstock.

At the northern end of Cobb County, it picks up more water from the Noonday Water Reclamation Facility, a sewage treatment plant. There is also now a large sewer line buried along most of the creek south (upstream) of the plant, seen as a treeless kudzu-covered flood plain, dotted with concrete mounds topped with manholes.

It is a tributary of the Little River, however it now flows directly into Lake Allatoona, not far from the Towne Lake area. Little Noonday Creek is its only named tributary, flowing westward and joining the main creek southwest of Noonday, at Noonday Creek Park. During heavy rains, the creek often floods the ballfields at the park, and increasingly so due to excess runoff from heavy development in the area. There are no official gauges or measurements reported for this creek.
