OEM: Limit non-essential travel if possible
Due to heavy rainfall and flooding in certain low-lying areas, the Office of Emergency Management asks residents to limit all non-essential travel at this time.
A flood watch is in effect through tonight into Saturday, Sept. 30. Heavy rainfall is expected throughout the day which has caused flooding in low-lying areas.
The Office of Emergency Management reminds residents to avoid flood-prone areas. Intense rainfall of greater than 0.8 inch per hour could result in flooding in low-lying areas.
Barricades have been deployed. OEM reminds residents not to walk or drive around barricades or through flooded areas. Driving through floodwaters can be dangerous. Stranded vehicles can impede emergency responses.
Residents should report flooded intersections and clogged drain inlets by calling the NHSA Hotline at (866) 689-3970.
