The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that over half of all flood-related drownings occur when a vehicle is driven into hazardous flood water. Permanent signs like this one will warn local motorists about roadways that have repetitive flash flooding issues.
More signs will be placed in the upcoming weeks along Sulphur, Russell and Big Creek where roadways are prone to high flow flash flooding. Comments | Permalink
