NORTH PLATTE, Neb. – In a Monday board meeting, the Central Nebraska Public Power District said high flows in the Platte River Basin will continue for the next several months and that peak flows are yet to come. The problems revolve around a large amount of snow in Wyoming that still needs to melt. The melting snows will runoff into the North Platte River. Currently there is about three times as much snow remaining than what’s normal for early June. There are no immediate plans to increase outflows from Lake McConaughy. However, the Laramie River’s flows are expected to increase. Flows from the Laramie River do contribute to the North Platte River, in addition to the snow melt from the Platte River Basin. Civil Engineer Cody Steinke says high flows into the Platte River Basin will continue into October or November.
