Susquehanna River Wilkes-Barre, PA

At the Wilkes-Barre flood protection levee, the river was at 41 feet (12.4 m), which was about the record level reached in Hurricane Agnes and at which point catastrophic flooding takes place. Forecasts predicted that the river would crest at above 39 feet (11.6 m), exceeding any other event other than Agnes and leading to significant flooding in other communities with less protection. Luzerne County officials said the large evacuations were precautionary, as there was a potential for the area to be isolated if the most severe predictions took hold.
