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
- 24 - Major flooding begins with widespread inundation of the large flood plain and woodlands upstream and downstream of the gage on Georgia Highway 88. The bridge forms an obstacle and acts like a dam causing some backwater and erosion eddies to the sides of the bridge and will likely be closed. The water level will completely cover the Sandy Ford Public Boat Ramp and begin to flood the adjacent parking lot.
- 22 - Moderate flooding continues to expand into the large flood plain and woodlands upstream and downstream of the gage on Georgia Highway 88. The bridge begins to form an obstacle and act like a dam causing some backwater and erosion eddies to the sides of the bridge and will likely be closed. The water level will completely cover the Sandy Ford Public Boat Ramp and begin to flood the adjacent parking lot.
- 20 - Moderate flooding begins. Widespread flooding expands into the large flood plain and woodlands upstream and downstream of the gage on Georgia Highway 88. The water level reaches the bottom of the bridge and the bridge may become closed. The water level will also be near the top of the Sandy Ford Public Boat Ramp.
