They're gettin there, on the other side of the same hill the unregulated  Elk is currently about 27300 cfs. So far this has been a really productive storm.

Wow - that's a lot of water for the Elk!!  That's more than they're running out of Beaver Lake.

Elk River this morning is running over 53,000 cfs. That is not a typo. That is a massive amount of water!

The cities of Neosho, Anderson, and Seneca were all shut down due to major flooding issues with numerous water rescues. It rained most of the day and at one point, we received 5.5 inches in 2 hrs.

And I mean literally just over the hill, the watershed divides around Avoca/Garfield.  Radar showed some of that drainage getting more than we did so COE is likely to dump more-

Looks like Beaver increased flood gates discharge at 10 am.  Tailwater level rose by 2 feet.  But Beaver is not rising now.

crested at 1131.20.  That has to be close to a record if its not THE record. That's 1.2 feet over top of flood pool.
