Enjoy the sunshine! I see people out running and walking today. Beware that the "Flood Warning" remains in effect until 8:15pm tonight. Rivers, creeks and streams will continue to rise downstream and in low-lying areas. According the National Weather Service Office in Indianapolis, we receive nearly 5 inches of rain and so the water has to go somewhere.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

In hilly terrain there are hundreds of low water crossings which are
