...FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 730 PM CDT FRIDAY...

* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues.

* WHERE...East Central Nuckolls County in south central Nebraska...
  Northern Thayer County in south central Nebraska...

* WHEN...Until 730 PM CDT Friday.

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

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - At 311 PM CDT, automated river gauges and ground-truth reports
    from observers indicated that minor flooding continued along the
    Little Blue River and Big Sandy Creek, as a result of heavy
    rainfall over the last few days. At 215 PM CDT, a gauge along the
    Little Blue River at Hebron reported a stage of 14.6 feet, which
    was 1.1 feet above minor flood stage of 13.5 feet. As a result,
    minor flooding continues both upstream and downstream of Hebron
    along the Little Blue through Thayer County. In addition, at 245
    PM CDT, a gauge along the Big Sandy Creek near Alexandria
    reported a stage of 14.6 feet, just above moderate flood stage of
    14.5 feet. As a result, at least minor flooding continues along
    the Big Sandy through northeastern Thayer County, including near
    Highway 53 just south of Alexandria. Going forward, water levels
    along the Little Blue River and Big Sandy Creek are expected to
    very slow fall over the next 24 hours, but could remain above
    minor flood stage until at least sometime Friday. However, exact
    timing of when they will fall below flood stage is a bit
    uncertain as upstream water will continue feeding into the area
    from the west.
  - This includes the following streams and drainages...
    Dry Creek, South Fork Big Sandy Creek, Little Blue River, Little
    Sandy Creek, Oak Creek, Walnut Creek, Elk Creek, Turtle Creek,
    Spring Creek, Dry Sandy Creek and Big Sandy Creek.
  - Some locations that could experience flooding include...
    Hebron, Davenport, Bruning, Alexandria, Carleton, Oak and
    Belvidere.
