I know about the trouble areas around St. Louis, but do you know if Hermann has flooding problems??? Example...the park next to the river.

the excessive precipitation has actually been across the southern part of missouri. I checked into projected flows and it appears that the river stages at Hermann are well below the flooding stages for the foreseeable future.

..and here is a long term forecast for hermann through this period, chances of rain are currently projected at less than 30%. It looks as though we are hitting a window of opportunity

KCMO, where do you get that chart info, and how accurate is it?

to be honest I just did a google search on long range weather forecasts and picked one that looked halfway reasonable. None of the forecasts over a week or so are really very good, but at least point you in a general direction so you can keep tracking as you get closer to the date of interest.

this is the one I posted

here is another forecast that shows a bit more of a rain chance

I am going to plan on a little rain in my preparations; but will hope for the best
