The Withlacoochee River is a tad high for novice paddlers.
Takeout flooded, eddies upstream, boat parking flooded, muddy entrance road
Yesterday the Withlacoochee River was at 107.5′ NAVD 1988 (feet above sea level), or 24′ old-style above the riverbed. Minor flood stage starts at 104′, and Action stage at 99′. With no more rain predicted this week, currently it’s expected to be down about 100.5′ by Saturday noon.
