Our Opinion:
What Allegedly Happened Based on the current information,
That has been provided to us. Most of the outcomes, are not known or final. RockfordScanner@gmail.com
The Village of Machesney Park is closely monitoring water levels on the Rock River, which were recorded at 8.87 feet as of 8 a.m. Monday, July 15, 2024.
Projections indicate that the river is expected to crest at 10.30 feet by Wednesday, July 17, 2024.
Out of an abundance of caution, the Village is making sandbags available to residents. While the risk to structures remains low at this time, we encourage those in potential flood zones to prepare accordingly. Sandbags are available for pickup at the Machesney Town Center, in front of the former J.C. Penny location (8702 N 2nd Street).
For more detailed information on current river levels, please visit the NOAA Rock River Latham gauge online at: https://water.noaa.gov/gauges/lati2. We urge everyone to take precautionary measures to secure their property and to remain alert to any changes in the situation.
Further updates will be provided by the Village as conditions change. Please stay tuned to local media and the Village’s website (https://machesneypark.org/) and social media pages for the latest information.
