Sunday Morning 2/24/19 05:30amCT Update on Flash Flooding

Sunday Morning 2/24/19 05:30amCT Update: Plan for extra travel time as needed this morning.

While most roadways listed last night have resolved, others could be damaged or remain flooded. Some closures are likely to remain in effect this morning as road crews assess any damages from last nights flooding.

Russell Creek at the Milltown gauge has plateaued just above 18’ but the roadway (Milltown Road) is still flooded and closed. And in case you missed it... TURN AROUND, DON’T DROWN!!!!

Director, Adair Co. Emergency Management
