"Crest" means the highest the water level is expected to get. "Flood stage" is the water level where the river is over it's banks, hence "flooding". A river can crest below, at, or above it's flood stage. It can crest three inches above flood stage (innocuous) or fifteen feet above flood stage (a disaster). Or anywhere in between. Or below flood stage. Every river, every spring, is different.
