LOCAL FLOODING IN DEERHORN TODAY...

FLOODED ROADWAYS
DEEHORN VALLEY RD AND HONEY SPRINGS DIPS
We had flooding at the three usual spots today... Apologies for not getting this out sooner.  Looks like the run-off built up quickly, and crossing the dip at the bottom of DV Rd and the two dips through the S-curves on Honey Springs was a little dicey.  Smart folks looked at their own vehicles and the depth/speed of the water, then made a safe decision.  No reports of cars getting stuck.

CHP still lists DV Road as flooded, but passable.  Here are some looks from earlier today that were posted on the Exchange:  Photos by Titus Lowell and Crys Noell:

Below is the current CHP Incident Report at 7:14 PM.
Road was passable with warning signs.
Thank you County Roads (DPW) and CHP!
