Wednesday evening, minor flooding was continuing along Kickapoo
Creek, especially in the town of Lawndale. This minor flooding is
expected to continue overnight and gradually subside during the day
Thursday. Excessive runoff from the excessive rainfall that
occurred late Monday will continue to cause flooding of small
creeks, streams, rural roads and underpasses. Farmlands along the
banks of creeks, streams and other low-lying areas are also subject
to flooding. Do not drive into flooded areas.
Be especially cautious at night, when it is harder to recognize
the dangers of flooding. Do not drive into areas where water covers
the road. When water begins rising, do not stay in areas subject to
flooding.
Report any flooding to your local emergency manager or the
nearest law enforcement agency for relay to the National Weather
Service.
