Emergency personnel kept a watchful eye on the rain-swollen Ohio and Licking rivers overnight, but there were no new reports of flooding in the Greater Cincinnati area.

        "There hasn't been any evacuation or anything of that kind,” a Pendleton County, Ky. emergency dispatcher said early Thursday of the Falmouth area. Dispatchers in Adams County, Ohio and Hamilton County, Ohio, which have experienced flooding in the past, reported no flooding problems early Thursday.

        “So far we don't have any (reports of flooding), a Cincinnati emergency dispatcher said at 1:15 a.m. Thursday.

        The National Weather Service in Wilmington, Ohio predicts the Licking River in Falmouth, Ky. will crest at 31.0 feet about 1 p.m. today. Flood stage is 28 feet.

        Meanwhile, the Ohio River in Cincinnati is forecast to crest at 52.0 feet at 7 a.m. Friday. Flood stage is 52.0 feet.

        The forecast for the next couple of days include a chance of additional precipitation. There's a 30 percent chance of snow showers this afternoon and evening as the temperatures drops from a high of 50 into the upper 30s. There's a 30 percent chance of rain showers Friday when the high will be in the upper 40s.

        "It shouldn't cause too much of a problem,” Mike Gallagher, a weather service hydro meteorological technician, said early Thursday of the forecast precipitation.

        Throughout the day on Wednesday, drivers on the Shoemaker Bridge in Falmouth, stopped or slowed down to check the flood river gauge on the Licking River. Five people were killed and hundreds were left homeless in Falmouth area during the Flood of '97.

        School was cancelled Wednesday in Adams County because several roads were impassable because of Ohio River tributary stream flooding. The schools were expected to open today, an Adam County emergency dispatcher said early Thursday, because there had been no reports of any road closings overnight..
