The Ohio River is approaching flood stage again

[Marthe48]

The Ohio started rising on April 3rd, closing most of downtown Marietta, and many low-lying areas outside the city limits. The streets and roads just started opening Sunday 4/7 and Monday 4/8. Some businesses in Marietta weren't cleaned up/opened from last week. Some streets on the west and south side of Marietta have closed already. The Ohio River is predicted to crest on Sunday morning, 8 a.m., at 37 feet, moderate flood stage. The flood last week crested at 40.07, a major flood. Once again, river towns from Wheeling, WV south will experience high water. WV is getting more flooding this week than they got last week, especially just south of Parkersburg, WV. What a mess.
