Flood Statement
National Weather Service Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN
1058 AM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024

...The Flood Warning continues for the following rivers in
Minnesota...

  Minnesota River near Jordan affecting Scott, Sibley and Carver
  Counties.

  Minnesota River at Henderson MN19 affecting Scott, Sibley and Le
  Sueur Counties.

  South Fork Crow River below Mayer affecting Carver County.

  Minnesota River at Savage affecting Scott, Dakota, Carver and
  Hennepin Counties.

  Minnesota River at Morton affecting Renville and Redwood Counties.

  Minnesota River at Montevideo affecting Lac qui Parle, Yellow
  Medicine and Chippewa Counties.

.River levels are still steadily increasing on the main stem
Minnesota/Mississippi, however the smaller rivers and streams have
leveled and will decrease as we experience dry weather for the next
several days. This break in activity should be enough to allow for
levels to steadily decline over the next week.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Turn around, don`t drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood
deaths occur in vehicles.

Caution is urged when walking near riverbanks.
