Logan Creek is Running High


Logan Creek that runs through Oakland is running very high. The recent rains here and to the north of Oakland have built up, causing the Logan to run high, full of tree branches and other such debris. The area to walk down and sit and fish is now under water. It is to rain again today, so it is doubtful it will go down right away.

The water is now where people could walk down and fish at Logan Creek in Oakland, NE. Photo Credit/Denise Gilliland, Editor and Chief, Kat Country Hub.

Storm Moving North


I took this photo Friday evening of a storm that was moving north of Oakland. There was lots of lightning, but only a tenth of an inch of rain was in my rain gauge. Photo Credit/Denise Gilliland, Editor and Chief, Kat Country Hub.
