March 3 warning of flooding on county roadways

Posted by Paula Scott on Saturday, March 4, 2023

Approx. 9:00 p.m. March 3 Road Conditions Announcement by Hardin County Sheriff:

Due to the continued rainfall across the area, our office is getting several calls about spots of high water across roadways.

All of the 'High Water' signs available in the county have been placed on roadways at this time.

We would like to remind motorists that attempting to cross roadways with water across it is extremely dangerous and should not be attempted. As night falls, water across the roadways is more difficult to see, thus motorists should allow extra time to be able to make it to their destinations safely.

Remember: Turn Around- Don't Drown!
