(March 3, 2026) Our partners at the National Weather Service released the second of three Spring Flood Outlooks on February 27. The latest outlook brings encouraging news: the probability of spring flooding is currently below normal for our area.

Although this means our community may get a welcome break from the hazards and inconvenience that accompany high river levels, conditions can change quickly. We will continue to monitor forecasts and river conditions and ensure all necessary equipment and resources remain ready until the potential for spring flooding has passed.

If you own property in a flood-prone area, now is a good time to check your risk and think about steps you can take to protect your property before the next high river event.
