Remember when

The Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality conducted a complaint investigation of the Village of Wolbach’s community burn site.

As of Sunday afternoon, the South Loup River’s flow reading is a bit strange. It shows the flow of 125 cubicfeet- per-second (cfs), but the graph goes up and down a lot. I wonder if something isn’t amiss with the measurer. The Middle Loup River at St. Paul’s graph looks normal, with a reading of 653 cfs. The North Loup River’s chart is also jumping around a lot, with a current reading stating 1,200 cfs.
