The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is issuing a small craft advisory for the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System in Arkansas.
Heavy rainfall in Arkansas over the last 24 hours resulted in Arkansas River flows exceeding 70,000 cubic feet per second at Dardanelle.
Small craft advisories are issued when flows exceed 70,000 c.f.s. Strong currents and large debris can threaten the safety of pleasure craft during high flows. Current flows at Dardanelle are above 100,000 c.f.s. A crest greater than 100,000 c.f.s. will make its way downstream over the next few days.
Daily river information can be obtained at www.swl-wc.usace.army.mil or the Little Rock District’s mobile App, which can be found in mobile App stores by searching for USACE Little Rock.
