Forecast is steady lake level

NO WAKE — Rainshowers forecast this week for Jefferson County are not anticipated to raise the levels of area rivers, meteorologists at the National Weather Service office in Sullivan say. Flood warnings remain in effect for the Crawfish River at Milford and the Rock River from Jefferson into Lake Koshkonong and Rock County. Area residents have kept a cautious eye on the waterways, wary after last year’s record-setting flood. Some roads have closed as a result of the high water, that remains several feel below last year’s record highs.
