OK Folks, show's over. Back to work.

Not much else to say. Ever since the water level dropped below 901 feet starting Moday (thanks to being able to discharge 100,000 cfps), there's been a steadily decreasing risk of any further serious issues.

Even if the main spillway were to have new erosion problems and had to be shut down, enough storage was created that the emergency spillway still should't be needed [Edit: for the storms forecasted in this current series of storms.]

So, on the 10th day, this phase of the crisis appears to have passed.

Just register for alerts and check in with river levels or 2, weather forecasts, road closures, etc., periodically, and this crisis should not interfere much further with your daily lives.

But do be prepared!

{Edit: Just wanted to clarify a couple things. As ss95060 points out, if the spillway becomes unusable again, then there's big troubles ahead again. I'm not going to disagree. My "Show's over" reference meant short term, it's probably OK to take a breath. When they can close the main spillway gate and do inspections we'll know a lot more about what things will look like going forward at that time.]

[Edit 2: Also wanted to put in a disclaimer. I'm not an engineer. Don't trust me. Seriously. Don't! Even if I was an engineer, that wouldn't mean you should trust me at face. You should always think for yourself.]
