## extract

Flood Warning — Fillmore, NE; York, NE
Severity: Severe. Certainty: Likely.
* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues.

* WHERE...Along the West Fork Big Blue River in Southeastern York
County in east central Nebraska and Northwestern Fillmore County in
south central Nebraska...

* WHEN...Until 100 PM CDT Saturday.

* IMPACTS...Flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying
and flood-prone locations is occurring.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- At 1212 PM CDT, the gauge along the West Fork Big Blue River
north of Grafton was at 13.0 feet, which was 2.0 feet above minor
flood stage of 11.0 feet. As a result, fairly widespread flooding
of pastures and fields immediately adjacent to the river
continues, including downstream through the McCool Junction area
to the Seward County line. Based on trends over the last several
hours at the Grafton gauge, water levels appear to have crested
and have started a very slow, gradual drop that should continue
over the next few days. However, it now appears that the river
will likely remain above flood stage until at least sometime
Saturday, prompting this Warning to be extended out farther in
time.
- This includes the following streams and drainages...
West Fork Big Blue River.
- Some locations that could experience flooding include...
McCool Junction, and rural areas along the West Fork Big Blue
River both upstream and downstream of McCool Junction.
