...Above bankfull but below flood stage levels were observed along

the Rio Grande...



For the Rio Grande at Rio Grande Village, BBNP, Texas

* The current stage was 12.15 feet (3.7 meters).

* Impacts at 12.0 feet (3.7 meters) the river reaches bankfull, and

  no damage is expected.  Preparations may be necessary to remove

  water pumps. The park should be notified at this time if additional

  rises are expected so they will have time to remove the pumps.



For the Rio Grande at Johnson Ranch near Castolon, Texas

* The current stage was 14.15 feet (4.3 meters).

* Impacts at 15.0 feet (4.6 meters) flood stage is reached.  Moderate

  lowland flooding begins.  Roads that lead to Cottonwood Campground

  and River Road may flood.  Stages are practically synonymous with

  the gage at Cottonwood Campground at Castolon (CSTT2), and

  therefore represent the reach from Santa Elena Canyon through

  Cottonwood Campground, where damage may occur.  Cattle also graze

  in the lowlands, and may be threatened.



For the Rio Grande at Presidio Vehicle Bridge

* The current stage was 14.35 feet (4.4 meters).

* Impacts at 15.5 feet (4.7 meters) the river reaches minor flood

  stage, and flooding between the levees occurs.  No damage to

  structures is expected.



Caution is urged when walking near riverbanks.
