National Water Model Hydrograph
Official NWS streamflow forecasts are produced by NWS hydrologic forecasters for river gauge locations using hydrologic models which are calibrated to that location. This process considers additional guidance and information, including local expertise and experience, to produce the best forecast possible. The NWM output provides supplemental guidance to NWS forecasters and should not be considered an official NWS river forecast.
Flood Impacts
- 20 - Devastating flooding along River Road and any adjacent roads near the river, with numerous homes significantly inundated. HWY 118 also floods near River Road, and some homes along HWY 118 are inundated.
- 18 - Widespread flooding along and south of River Road. Water inundates homes on Cow Pen Landing Road and adjacent roads to the south of River Road. Additionally, residences on Elane Drive are flooded.
- 16 - Maple Cypress Road is inundated at low spots on either side of the bridge over the Neuse River. River Road is impassable in several spots. Water surrounds many homes along River Road, and adjacent roads to the south, including Jolly Ole Farm Road.
