The flood warning issued for most of Southeast Kansas continues as both the Verdigris and Neosho rivers are expected to continue rising through tomorrow/Thursday morning. The Neosho River is projected to cause moderate flooding in Erie, Parsons, and Oswego when the river crests at about 10:00 tomorrow morning anywhere from 2 to 5 feet above flood stage. The Verdigris in Independence and Coffeyville is expected to reach right at or slightly below flood stage tomorrow morning.

And yesterday there was some confusion over the forecasted crest of the Verdigris in Independence. Chance Hayes with the National Weather Service in Wichita explains how the numbers can fluctuate a lot throughout the day.
