Updated Flood outlook: All reservoirs continue to receive a good amount of precipitation. Please note that South Crow Creek and Post Creek, in particular, will experience an increase in outflow in the next few hours, as of Monday morning, June 1st. Pending rainfall, Mission Creek’s flow may also experience an increase in volume. Please stay clear of these creeks and resulting fast-moving water. Officials are monitoring the flooding closely and performing water-control actions. Nearby residents may see impacts due to these fluctuations and should take necessary precautions. Until this storm passes this week, please remain flood-aware when traveling Highway 93 or roadways in vicinity of creeks, canals, or reservoirs.
If your home or workplace is flooding and your safety is in danger, please call 911.
