Sat Apr 05 19:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Major Rivers to Flood in Cincinnati Area This Weekend
**CINCINNATI, OH [Date]** – Significant flooding is expected along several major rivers in the Cincinnati area this Sunday and Monday as floodwaters are predicted to rise to moderate levels. The Ohio River is forecast to crest at 60 feet, a level only reached once in the past 28 years. This will cause substantial flooding in the East End, California, and New Richmond, Ohio, as well as inundating riverfront buildings in Aurora, Indiana. The Little Miami, Great Miami, and Licking Rivers are also expected to overflow their banks, leading to numerous road closures.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has issued flood warnings and provided an interactive map detailing predicted inundation zones. Residents are urged to consult the NOAA website [link to NOAA map] for specific flood forecasts in their areas. The agency’s projections show substantial overflow beyond the riverbanks, particularly along the Ohio River. Authorities are advising residents in affected areas to prepare for potential flooding and take necessary precautions.
