Jan 19, 1996
On the Monongahela River near record flooding occurred at all Pennsylvania forecast points, except where record flooding occurred at Lock 2 Braddock. The crest at Lock 2 actually exceeded the crest during the flood of November 1985 by almost a foot. This was due to the tremendous contribution made by the Youghiogheny River during this particular flood. The crest at Braddock was 29.1 feet, 7.1 feet above its 22 foot flood stage, at 9 am on the 20th. Damage was extensive along the river.In Greene
