The flood warning continues for the Grand River near Pattonsburg until Wednesday evening…or until the warning is cancelled.
At 8:59 a.m. Tuesday the stage was 21.2 feet. Flood stage is 25 feet. The river is expected to rise to near flood stage this evening. At 25 feet low-lying farmland begins to flood.
Do not drive through flowing water. Nearly half of all flood fatalities are vehicle related. As little as six inches of water may cause you to lose control of your vehicle. Two feet of water will
carry most vehicles away.
