Updates as appropriate.

While persistent rain across some of our counties through the day created high water at a number of locations along state highways, this is our first report of closures..

As rain continues, motorists are advised to use appropriate caution. Remember, as little as 6 inches of moving water can push a vehicle off the roadway. Turn around, don’t drown.

If you encounter a flooded highway that is not marked by a sign, please take note of the highway number and the specific location using a milepost, nearby intersection, or landmark and immediately report it to your local 911.
