MANY PRIMARY AND SECONDARY ROADS STILL INUNDATED WITH HIGH WATER
ACROSS THE REGION. A NUMBER OF SMALLER CREEKS...STREAMS REMAIN AT

DEEPER THAN THEY APPEAR. JUST ONE FOOT OF FLOWING WATER IS POWERFUL
ENOUGH TO SWEEP VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD. WHEN ENCOUNTERING FLOODED
ROADS MAKE THE SMART CHOICE...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN. UNTIL THE
WATER RECEDES...FLOODING OF SMALL CREEKS AND STREAMS...HIGHWAYS AND
UNDERPASSES WILL BE POSSIBLE. COUNTRY ROADS AND FARMLANDS ALONG THE
