Is the Mississippi River expected to flood this year?

We're good

Flood Level for the river differs at different locations. Flood stage is lower the closer one is to the Gulf as the river flows downhill. Also, "Flood Stage" on the Mississippi River is what would be a flood if the levees did not exist. Therefor, the level at which the Mississippi River can actually overflow its levies is significantly above flood stage.

If the experts thought there was a reasonable chance of a cataclysmic flood by the Mississippi, wouldn't it be bigger news already?

Weather Channel gonna Weather Channel, no Alpha male has watched more than two consecutive minutes of it.

They're expecting a very high river this flood season. While it's unclear, as of yet, whether they'll have to open the spillways again, it will be something to keep an eye out for. The River's saving grace is that while there was heavy snowfall in the Ohio River Valley, that region avoided much of the snowfall that afflicted places like Boston. Also, the Missouri River Valley did not see that much snow, relatively speaking, this year.
