Any predictions as to whether there will be any water running this afternoon or tomorrow afternoon? Lots of rain in NWA.

I have a buddy that swears Norrell spill way is going to run today. I think he has someone over there (not a boater) who he calls to get an idea of flow. I have a lot of s**t going on today, but might try to sneak over there between my 11:00 meeting and a charity function i have to be ready for by 5:30.
If you haven't floated it before, its a solid class IV with some probably class V consequences (fortunately haven't experienced that yet). Anyway, its a great float and you can scout the whole thing via a trail on river left.

It looks like rain all day long. I get off of work at 5 o'clock. I'm going home for lunch at 12 packing up my gear and will be ready to roll at 5. I'm ready to go if anyone else is running

i just drove up I-540, and clear creek at chester looked to be on the rise. I've been wanting to try the upper section (take out at chester) for a while. Not sure if it will be doable.

Looking at Google Earth shows West Cedar getting 4" at the headwaters, and the Middle Fork of the White getting 5" in spots on the headwaters. If I lived in Fayetteville, I would go check out the Middle Fork of the White...
Big Piney or Mulberry may come up tonight.
Can anyone get a visual on West Cedar today?

Go to South Cedar! By the way,Norrell is definitely NOT a solid 4 w/5 consequences.

Jermdog, Spanke, and I have been driving around to find something:
Lee Creek was not in
West Cedar was not in
Middle Fork was not in
Frog was not in
Clear Creek was not in
Horsehead Spillway was not in
We are currently in Clarksville...maybe we will find something. If South Cedar runs please call one of us.
