* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- At 1031 AM CDT, As of 945 AM CDT Friday, the gauge along the
Little Blue River north of Deshler was at 16.5 feet, which was
just above minor flood stage of 16.0 feet. Meanwhile, at 1015 AM
CDT the gauge at Hebron reported a stage of 13.5 feet, which was
right at minor flood stage. As a result, minor, lowland flooding
continues along the immediate reach of the Little Blue River from
east-central Nuckolls County downstream across all of Thayer
County. Based on trends over the last 12 hours, the river is
expected to continue a very slow, gradual fall through the rest
of today, and the gauges near Deshler and Hebron could slip
slightly below flood stage by sometime Friday evening. However,
there is some uncertainty regarding how quickly water levels will
drop, and it is possible that areas along the river especially
east of Hebron to the Jefferson County line could continue to
experience minor flooding through at least early Saturday.
- This includes the following streams and drainages...
Little Blue River.
- Locations immediately along the Little Blue River across Thayer
and far eastern Nuckolls counties.
