| Flood Impacts | |
| 18.0 Feet | Major Flooding. Catastrophic and widespread floodplain inundation. County fairgrounds completey under water. Highway 25 begins to flood and bridge is heavily backwatered. |
| 14.0 Feet | Moderate Flooding. Widespread floodplain inundation in the vicinity of the fairgrounds. Water is now interacting with the Highway 25 bridge chord, potentially causing backwatering and enhanced inundation upstream. |
| 11.6 Feet | Minor Flooding. Water level has reached the top of the levee protecting the fairgrounds RV park on the north side of the river upstream of the Highway 25 bridge. With the exception of the left bank (south) side floodplain upstream of the bridge, all nearby floodplain will be inundated, especially if waters crest the limited levee present. NWS will issue a Flash Flood Warning, if not yet already issued. |
| 8.5 Feet | Monitor Stage. Areas on the right bank (north) side downstream of the Highway 25 bridge may begin to become inundated. NWS may issue a Flash Flood Watch, if not yet already issued. |
