The main stem was rising slightly Thursday, flowing at roughly 31,000 cfs at Scotia. It’s predicted for a small rise Sunday before it goes back on the drop. Projections have it down to 16,500 cfs by Tuesday morning, but next week’s rain will likely put it right back to square one. Will need a couple weeks of dry weather before it’s green.
