The National Weather Service has continued the flood advisory for the rivers at the Point in Downtown Pittsburgh today.

At 10 a.m., the river stage was 19.2 feet, more than a foot higher than the flooding threshold for the Monongahela Wharf, which has been closed because of high water since March 11. The river was expected to recede below flood stage on Thursday night.
