题名: Captain's Table: High water on the Ohio in 2019
正文语种: eng
作者: ALAN BERNSTEIN
摘要: In my 40-plus years on the river, I don't think I have ever seen as much rainfall and high-water conditions on the Ohio River as we have had in 2018 and early 2019. We have experienced high water conditions and flooding on the Ohio before, but not for such an extended period. By December 2018, parts of Kentucky had already received nearly 70″ of rainfall. In the Cincinnati area where my company operates, we recently had a stage of 56′, which is four feet above flood stage (pool stage is 26′). At first glance, this might not sound so bad, until you learn that all the flood gates on the Newport, Ky., side of the Ohio River have been closed for quite a while. Under these conditions, those who do business on the river side of the flood gates must scramble to get and maintain access over the flood walls. When the flood gates remain closed, it has a huge effect on our ability to operate.
