FLASH FLOOD WARNING – SHELBY COUNTY

| March 10, 2010 @ 8:26 pm | 14 Replies

Sorry to yell…but this is important.

Very dangerous situation tonight in Shelby County. Huge rainfall amounts have already been received and very heavy rainfall is forming again upstream, poised to move over the County again.

6 to 7 inch rainfall amounts are common on Doppler Radar estimates and these have been borne out by actual rainfall reports…

Here is what is upstream at 8:20 p.m. Everything is moving northeast.

Be alert if you live in a flood prone area and be ready to move to higher ground if flooding begins.

Most flood deaths occur in automobiles. Do not drive into water that is standing or flowing. You do not know the integrity of the road underneath or the depth.

Remember…turn around…don’t drown!
