The River Flow Advisory Commission is meeting at the Maine Emergency Management Agency headquarters Thursday to look at those factors and short- and long-term weather forecasts in making their determination.
The commission meets in late winter to share information, examine the likelihood of spring flooding and renew operational procedures.
