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.
Categories use today's flood stages. Levees, dams and channel changes since a crest can make old and new stages not directly comparable.
8 crests measured on an earlier gauge datum are left out: 21.10 ft on May 1, 1957; 12.47 ft on May 29, 1974; 11.16 ft on May 20, 1977; 13.49 ft on Jun 3, 1995; 9.07 ft on Jun 19, 2008; 8.96 ft on Apr 22, 2010; and more.
