Title: Spokane River Flow in Washington
Post by: DeeanDave on May 24, 2008, 03:09:22 PM
Hello all!  Dave and I took a break this morning and went to view the Spokane River which has many falls and runs through downtown Spokane.  We've had a lot of flooding along the Spokane River (we live two miles from it here in the valley area) due to the large snowpack and warmer temperatures melting the snowpack!  It's amazing to see!  The water is flowing over the falls in downtown Spokane at 40,600 cubic feet per second. One of the footbridges had to be closed due to the strong water mist that is flying up from hitting the rocks.  Enjoy the photos!  Dee
