NOTE: Forecasts are issued as needed during times of high water, but are not routinely available.
River forecasts for this location take into account past precipitation and the precipitation amounts expected approximately 24 hours into the future from the forecast issuance time.
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

- 21 - The railroad bridge near the site acts as a dam at 20.5 feet which will result in backwater. Highway 2 will be underwater between Hazard and Ravenna in several locations.
- 20 - Widespread flooding occurs in agricultural land adjacent to the river. Highway 2 will be inundated between Hazard and Sweetwater. Access to Ravenna from the south will be cut off as Highway 68 will be under water. A house downstream of the gauge house on Keystone Road will begin to flood.
- 18 - There will be widespread lowland flooding and Highway 68 access to Ravenna will be under water. In addition, water may encroach on Highway 2 between Hazard and Sweetwater.
