  1. These are the crests the local National Weather Service office lists for the gauge: the highest on record and recent crests. Lesser floods between them may be missing, so counts by decade are a floor.
  2. Categories use today's flood stages. Levees, dams and channel changes since a crest can make old and new stages not directly comparable.
  3. 18 crests measured on an earlier gauge datum are left out: 16.40 ft on Jun 11, 1958; 16.20 ft on Jan 22, 1959; 14.66 ft on Mar 6, 1963; 14.42 ft on Apr 21, 1964; 13.92 ft on Feb 24, 1975; 12.90 ft on Feb 24, 1985; and more.
