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.

Several tens of homes near Tivoli flood and are cut off, and a fishing camp just below Highway 35 floods.
- 38 - Major lowland flooding occurs. The lowest homes in the flood plain flood, some up to seven feet. Hundreds of livestock are cut off and potentially drowned, below Highway 59 to the Guadalupe River confluence.
