It will be at least one day before flooding conditions improve along the Neuse River near Goldsboro.  According to the National Weather Service, the Neuse River remains just shy of 22-feet in “Moderate Flood Stage.”  Starting Wednesday, the levels on the local river are expected to begin dropping.  However, the flooding conditions along the Neuse River in Wayne County will likely continue through the end of the week.

Downstream, the Neuse River at Kinston remains in “Moderate Flood Stage” and is expected to remain near its current level through the rest of the week.
