PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

People with interests along the river should prepare for flood 
conditions and be ready to move to higher ground. Follow emergency 
official instructions.

River flooding can cause additional hazards like bank collapse and 
shifting channels. Avoid areas adjacent to a flooding river since the
earth underneath may be eroded. Do not let children play near 
floodwaters...especially around culverts and storm drains.

Do not drive through flood prone areas...low water crossings...or go 
around barricades. The road ahead may be undermined or washed out and
the water depth too great to allow your car to cross safely.

For the latest developments listen to NOAA Weather Radio or tune to 
your local tv or radio station. Information can also be obtained from
the NWS website at www.wrh.noaa.gov/mtr

The next statement will be issued by 4 am local time or 
sooner as conditions warrant.
