Meanwhile, the Flood Warning returns for the Kaskaskia River in Vandalia. The National Weather Service says the river will be at 14.7 feet today—still well below it’s 18 foot flood stage. But, the river is expected to go above flood stage on Thursday and rise to 18.3 feet—which is just above the flood stage. But, with the possibility of several more inches of rain, the NWS adds additional rises are likely over the next few days.
