Officers from the Reed City Police Department are urging residents to use caution when traveling due to flooding. 

 

(Westerburg Park area)

 

According to Brian Koschmider of RCPD parents should remind their children to stay out of the water and low lying areas with water. With flash flooding, even roadside ditches can be dangerous. The strength of the current can be unexpected.

 

(Kayak launch at Westerburg Park. There is a foot path that runs along the river but it is under approximately 4ft of water in places.)

 

Driver's are reminded to use caution and avoid areas where there is standing water on the road or water running across the road.
