The process of moving water from flood control reservoirs downstream is ongoing. The Oklahoma Texas Water Science Center is responding to these releases, conducting necessary measurements at key locations. This effort will continue as floodwaters are passed downstream. Crews were in the field yesterday and we have additional teams in the field today, with plans for a continued response as needed. The process of moving the flood waters downstream will likely take several weeks.
