National Water Model Hydrograph
Official NWS streamflow forecasts are produced by NWS hydrologic forecasters for river gauge locations using hydrologic models which are calibrated to that location. This process considers additional guidance and information, including local expertise and experience, to produce the best forecast possible. The NWM output provides supplemental guidance to NWS forecasters and should not be considered an official NWS river forecast.
Flood Impacts
- 26 - Major flooding begins. The US-301 bridge is inundated and the road is closed. Homes along US-301 south of the site may be affected.
- 18 - Moderate flooding begins. Fishing Creek floods a broad expanse of marsh and farmland.
- 16 - Minor flooding begins. Minor overflow occurs on both banks near Hwy 301. Creeks and streams downstream of Hwy 301 may backup and cause flooding across Island Rd.
