Suwannee tributaries flooding 2018-08-07

Once again, as during Hurricane Irma, recent rains are causing flooding on Suwannee River tributaries.

Suwannee River Basin, Map

The Withlacoochee River at Skipper Bridge and at US 41 (North Valdosta Road) is in Near Flood Stage, as is the Suwannee River at Fargo, and the New River near Lake Butler.

Already in Minor Flooding are numerous gauges on the Santa Fe River.

Click here for the live map, and you can click through that to the individual USGS gauges, displayed by NOAA on water.weather.gov.

Most or all of them are already going down or are projected to do so. But more rain could make them go up.
