(KLZA)-- A flood warning will remain in effect through the early part of next week along the Missouri River.
The crest is expected to occur Thursday in Southeast Nebraska, Northwest Missouri and Northeast Kansas.
At Rulo, the crest is predicted for Thursday evening at 20 feet, which is 3-feet above flood stage.
At Brownville, the crest is predicted at 37.6-feet Thursday morning which is 4.6 feet above flood stage.
At Nebraska City, the National Weather Service believes the Missouri has crested at just over 21-feet with the flood stage being 18 feet.
At St. Joseph, Missouri, the crest is predicted for Thursday morning at 18.7-feet, less than 2-feet above the flood stage of 17 feet.
The Missouri River is expected to remain above flood stage through Monday and possibly later into next week due to heavy rains up stream last week.
