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
- 5 - At these flows there is high potential for erosion of the streambanks especially along the creek through the town of Okanogan.
- 4.1 - Water will be over Salmon Creek Road in several spots between Spring Coulee Rd and Danker Cutoff Rd as well as between Ruby Grade and Conconully Highway. Some private driveways and bridges will be unusable and fields throughout the Salmon Creek valley will be flooded.
