...A Flood Warning continues for portions of the following waterways
in Indiana...
East Fork White River...Wabash River...White River...
.A winter storm brought a combination of rain and snow across much
of central Indiana on Saturday with the heaviest across the East
Fork White basin. This combined with rain tonight into the day on
Wednesday will lead to widespread minor flooding. Rainfall amounts
are expected to be between a half inch to an inch with locally
higher amounts.
The East Fork White River is falling in the Seymour area, but is
expected to rise above flood stage later this week.  Water levels
will continue to rise downstream, running less than 2 feet above
flood stage. Flooding along the river should end by the upcoming
weekend.
The White River is expected to flood along the lower reaches of the
river starting late this week and spreading downstream through the
weekend.
The Wabash River between Lafayette and Riverton will rapidly rise
into flood stage over the course of the week and will slowly rise at
points downstream.
Flooding will affect some local and state roads, agricultural
land, and some river parks and/or cabins.
Precautionary/Preparedness Actions...
Motorists should never drive into flood water. Turn around and go
another way. Keep children away from flooded areas. Recreational and
agricultural interests should remain alert to changing river
conditions.
