The Emergency Operation Center is open from 7 a.m. – 12 a.m. Flood fight teams have been deployed across the area and are providing technical assistance to levee districts and ensuring supplies such as sand bags, pumps, and plastic sheeting are available if needed. Heavy localized downpours can quickly result in flash flooding or other rapid rises in water levels. In addition, use extreme care when driving and never drive into water since it may turn out to be deeper or faster-flowing than expected.
