...The National Weather Service in Omaha/Valley NE has issued a
Flood Watch for the following rivers in Nebraska...Iowa...Missouri...
Missouri River At Nebraska City affecting Fremont and Otoe
Counties.
Missouri River Near Blair affecting Pottawattamie, Harrison and
Washington Counties.

Counties.

.Very heavy rainfall occurred in eastern South Dakota and northwest
Iowa overnight. Rainfall amounts of 4 to 6 inches were common over a
large area with some areas reporting over 7 inches of rain or more.
The runoff from this rain could potentially bring the Missouri
River, below Gavins Point Dam, well into flood stage. More rain is
expected today and again tonight, only worsening the situation. Due
to the large amount of water coming down the river, the river will
not crest until mid to late next week with some locations reaching
moderate flood stage.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
If you are in the watch area, remain alert to possible flooding.
