COMMUNITY INFORMATION - Flash Flood Warning for Montgomery County

The National Weather Service has issued a FLASH FLOOD WARNING for Montgomery County until 11:30 am. At 8:12 am, Doppler radar indicated very heavy rainfall moving through the County. 2-3" of rain has already fallen in some areas, and an additional 1-2" is possible.

Residents should expect extremely heavy rain that may flood low lying areas and streets with slow drainage. Do not try to cross flooded roads. Use caution while driving.

Flash Floods kill more people every year than any other weather hazard. Do not drive through flooded areas. As little as 2 feet of water can sweep a vehicle off the road. Please stay alert for any warnings.
