28 Moderate flood stage - water will likely rise onto road between airstrip and village and flow into lake on east side of village. Village is elevated so no impact expected to most structures.
26.5 Minor flood stage - river overbank and flooding most of the short frontage road along the river near the village. This is the access road to the slope profile gage. Main village roads are raised so no impact to structures. Water will also flow into surrounding wetlands at this stage.
25 Action stage - river bankfull near slope profiles gage and beginning to flow over bank on islands across river from profile and low spots upstream/downstream. No visible impact to village or roads.
