Van Buren Emergency Management Director Curt Majors recently posted on social media:
“After talking with the National Weather Service in Paducah and consulting with the river forecast center they just notified me they are changing the forecast to 30ft for the Current River at Van Buren and 28ft for the Current at Doniphan”
Majors tells Ozark Radio News that local officials are going door-to-door, warning residents that are in direct threat of flooding. The situation is continually being monitored.
