Get Ready For Spring Flooding



MANKATO – The National Weather Service flood forecast predicts the greater Mankato area could face major flooding this spring.

There’s a 30 percent chance the Minnesota River could hit 27 feet in Mankato.

The record is 30 feet in 1993.
 
New Ulm and Henderson will likely bear the brunt of spring flooding.

New Ulm faces an outside chance of topping levels seen in 2001. In Henderson, there’s an 80 percent chance of flood water topping Highway 93.
