德州 Nueces River 洪水警告延续：周日预计涨至15英尺、高出洪水位1英尺
德克萨斯州麦克马伦县（McMullen County）Tilden 附近的 Nueces River 洪水警告仍在生效。国家气象局（NWS）Corpus Christi 办公室 11 月 13 日晚 8 时 06 分（中部时间）发布的洪水声明说，该河段预计出现轻度洪水，警告时段为周六晚至下周一晚。
据该声明，周五晚 7 时 30 分该河段实测水位为 10.9 英尺，洪水位为 14.0 英尺，平槽水位为 11.0 英尺。预报显示，河水将于周六晚涨过洪水位，周日下午早些时候涨至 15.0 英尺的峰值，随后在下周一上午晚些时候回落到洪水位以下。
气象局说，水位达到 15.0 英尺时，Cotulla 至 Tilden 以下的大片泛滥平原将被水切断，低洼沟渠与支流河道会被灌满，远离主河道的狩猎小屋、油田抽油机与储罐设施会被淹，牲畜可能被困溺亡。
气象局在声明中提醒，遇到被淹道路应掉头绕行，不要驾车涉水，大多数洪水死亡发生在车辆中；在河岸附近行走时也要保持警惕。（来源：国家气象局）
Flood Warning Continues for Texas Nueces River: Crest of 15 Feet Forecast Sunday, One Foot Above Flood Stage
The flood warning remains in effect for the Nueces River near Tilden, in McMullen County, Texas. In a flood statement issued at 8:06 p.m. CST on November 13, the National Weather Service (NWS) office in Corpus Christi said minor flooding is forecast for the river reach, with the warning in effect from Saturday evening to late Monday night.
At 7:30 p.m. CST Friday the river stage was 10.9 feet, against a flood stage of 14.0 feet and a bankfull stage of 11.0 feet, the statement said. The river is expected to rise above flood stage Saturday evening to a crest of 15.0 feet early Sunday afternoon, then fall below flood stage late Monday morning.
At 15.0 feet, much of the flood plain from below Cotulla to below Tilden is cut off as sloughs and peripheral channels fill, the weather service said. Hunting cabins, oil field pump jacks and tank batteries well away from the channel flood, and livestock can be cut off and drown.
The weather service urged motorists to turn around rather than drive through flooded roads, noting that most flood deaths occur in vehicles, and urged caution when walking near riverbanks. (Source: National Weather Service)
