Flood Statement
National Weather Service Indianapolis IN
808 PM EDT Sat Apr 13 2024

...The Flood Warning continues for the following rivers and
locations in Indiana...

  Driftwood River near Edinburgh.

  East Fork White River at Seymour and near Rivervale.

.Main stem rivers in central and southern Indiana continue to flood
as a result of rainfall of 2 to 4 plus inches that fell earlier this
week. Most creeks and streams have fallen below flood stage, though
several are near bankfull.

Little rainfall and plentiful sunshine is expected through Monday,
which will be conducive to moving water downstream. A potent weather
system is due to move through Tuesday and Wednesday, which may bring
enough rain to slow or reverse the fall of area waterways.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Caution is urged when walking near riverbanks.

Even 6 inches of fast-moving flood water can knock you off your feet
and a depth of 2 feet will float your car. Never try to walk, swim,
or drive through such swift water. If you come upon flood waters,
stop, turn around and go another way.

Additional information is available at www.weather.gov/ind.

The next statement should be issued Sunday afternoon by around 200
PM EDT.
