County officials continue to anticipate a very slow recession of floodwaters. Most roads, streets and highways closed late last week when the Ohio River reached its crest are still under water and closed.
Fifty homes in Crittenden County have been evacuated and floodwaters are affecting many others in the Shady Grove, Tolu, Dycusburg and Weston areas. Many residents are trapped behind flood waters with no way out other than boating. If you need emergency assistance, call 965-3500.
