Everett Just leads Pulaski with six goals on the season.

Historic flooding along the Wolf River in Shawano, Outagamie and Waupaca counties this spring has put a damper on opportunities to watch the annual ritual of Winnebago System lake sturgeon spawning in the river.

She wasn’t clearing leaves from her driveway. Instead, like her neighbors, she was doing what she could to keep the river from inching closer to the home she and her husband, Randy, have lived in for 51 years.

After a day or two of drier weather, area communities can expect to be hit with another round of rain April 17.

The National Weather Service in Green Bay predicts that despite of a high of 75 degrees April 17, there is a 30% chance of showers during the day, showers and possibly a thunderstorm from 7 p.m. to 1 a.m. April 18 and more showers after that.
