Also, brief heavy downpours on already saturated ground may briefly worsen ongoing flooding for areas west of Highway 281. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday. Significant flooding will likely continue for the next several days due to runoff from recent heavy rain, particularly along the Wood River, Platte River and Republican River in south central Nebraska. Please see individual flood statements for additional, more specific information. Periodic thunderstorms are possible Thursday night through Tuesday, but it is too soon to determine severe thunderstorm potential. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
