Even if your area seems dry, heavy upstream rain poses serious risks. Spring Park and Albert Thompson Road are already underwater, and by 19 feet, LA Hwy 40 near the bridge will be submerged. At 21 feet, homes near Bennet Bridge Road and low-lying sections of LA Hwy 1077 could be inundated, with dangerous currents threatening the bridge. A flood warning is in effect through Saturday morning, with Tropical Storm Arthur adding uncertainty. Stay tuned to forecasts—and heed the critical advice: if you see water on the road, turn around.
