NWS Springfield
.LONG TERM...(Monday through Saturday) Issued at 129 AM CDT Sun Apr 30 2017 The next shortwave riding through a northwesterly flow aloft will arrive Tuesday night and Wednesday. This system will interact with front stalled just to our south to bring another round of rain and some thunder. Rainfall amounts of one to two inches may occur Tuesday night and Wednesday. At this point does it really make any difference? Everything is just going to be full longer. |

That is an amazing amount of water and rise considering every foot up spreads out over more and more land.
100,000 cfs is 18 acres a foot deep per minute. That is crazy numbers. Thanks for the updates. Is the James and King dropping or maintaining their flows. The video from Powersite you could see it increase as it ran. That was a huge WOW for any engineer. |

James: 83700 cfs (increasing)
Kings: 30000 cfs (decreasing) As if we didn't need another complication, now it is windy. A lot of docks are unacessible, and were left with loose cables, to keep them from breaking as the water rises more. So, now they are swinging back and forth, with tremendous pressure on cables. Dockwise, I have no idea what they do with them on Taneycomo, with all that current, when it gets like this. Last edited by NotJLB; 04-30-2017 at 12:45 PM. |

This is an emergency message from the City of Branson Emergency Management. The Corps of Engineers will be increasing flows from the gates of Table Rock Dam from 49 thousand to 65 thousand cubic feet per second at 6 pm. Please take appropriate actions to secure personal property and evacuate areas prone to flooding when flood gates open. Remember, utility services in these areas may be turned off if affected by flood waters. Early evacuation prior to dark is imperative.

The spillway release from Beaver is the same amount as the spillway release from TRL.
Beaver got stopped going up at 1131.25 22 hours ago. Now it is right at flood stage, 1130. TRL has not been stopped yet, and is at: 01MAY2017 1400 934.53 It's hovering around there, about to be stopped from going up. James and Kings are both backed off quite a lot, but James is still 33600. Kings is 6800. Those and what's being released from Beaver is still more than is being released from TRL, so figure it out. KC bridge is closed, so it's the long way to and from town. I did some sight-seeing coming home today. Cold and windy and nasty today. |

NWS for Tuesday night and Wednesday:
Generally speaking, we are looking at 1.50" to 2.50" amounts. With soils saturated and rivers/streams very high, this rainfall will only add to the flooding concerns. |

I can tell we have dock damage, likely a broken cable at least. It was OK until it got windy. It will be awhile before I can access/assess it, and see what else there is.
Ours won't be the only one. |

I am seeing 933.82 for TR. Is that correct. If so they have it going down. Unbelievable how much water they can get rid of from that lake thru the gates alone. Good grief.
Looks like they dodged the bullet again or ...its a calculated and carefully executed plan that seems to work every time? Hmmm... |
