inches of rain fell from Atmore to wabeek this afternoon. Rain has
let up in the area but and additional half inch of rain is
possible…therefore runoff will continue to keep water in low

Precautionary/preparedness actions…
Excessive runoff from heavy rainfall will cause elevated levels on
small creeks and streams…and ponding of water on country roads and
farmland along the banks of creeks and streams.
Do not drive your vehicle into areas where the water covers the
roadway. The water depth may be too great to allow your car to cross
safely. Move to higher ground.
