Updates as they become available. Radar indicates another round of thundershowers heading our way, so it is likely this list will grow through the morning.
Again, it is likely water will be over roadways at additional locations. Please be aware of permanent “Road May Flood” signs at locations where flooding is likely. Extra caution is required if you plan to travel before daylight.
As little as 6 inches of running water can push a vehicle off the roadway. Remember, Turn Around – Don’t Drown.
If you encounter a roadway that is flooded, please take note of the specific location using a crossroad, mile marker, street address, or other nearby landmark and report it immediately to your local 911 Call Center.
