Delaware River Report / Conditions October 28, 2018

The rivers are up this morning. Yesterday’s rain was just a steady one- not really heavy at any one time but lasted most of the day.  We had a break but the rain that came overnight bumped the rivers back up and most of them are just peaking or beginning to fall now.  We should keep the cloud cover but be dry for most of the day.  We may get some rain but that shouldn’t happen until after dark – maybe another 1/4″ coming tonight.   It looks like a streamer day today.

The Upper West Branch from Cannonsville Dam to Monument is closed.  The East Branch from Pepacton Dam to Shinhopple Bridge is also closed.
