CINCINNATI

Last Sunday I gave a list of weather highs and lows for the city.  Here is one I omitted.  In 1881, the Ohio river fell to a depth of 1'11" - less than two feet deep.  A few years later, 1884, it reached a height of over 71' - the second highest crest ever. 

The normal pool for our river, after the current dams were installed in 1952, is about 25'.   Flood stage is considered 52'. 

Enough of river talk.  I promise.
