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
- 38 - Water covers the bridge on Route 52 in addition to major flooding through much of Hamilton County near the Great Miami River. Particularly hard hit are low areas along the river from New Baltimore to Cleves.
- 35 - Flooding of many properties between Front Street and the river occurs, as well as all of the Taylor Mill Water Treatment plant. Long stretches of State Route 128 north of Miamitown are flooded.
- 33 - In addition to flooding several feet deep along Harrison Pike and river front homes in Miamitown, the Taylor Creek Waste Water Treatment Plant incurs flooding.
