...The Flood Warning continues for the following river and locations
in Indiana...

Indianapolis, Anderson, Centerton, and Spencer.
...The Flood Warning is extended for the following river and
locations in Indiana...
White River at Muncie, below Eagle Valley Power Plant, and at
Elliston.
.Repeating rounds of showers and thunderstorms over the past 72
hours, ending at 8 AM this morning, has brought copious rainfall to
eastern, northern central, and much of western Indiana. Maximum
radar estimates across a swath from Clinton and Howard counties
north of Indianapolis, east-southeast and southeast to Randolph and
Decatur counties, show roughly six to 12.5 inches of rain has
fallen! This has led to widespread flooding, some of it historic.
Major flooding has occurred, is occurring, or is expected to occur
on the White River at Ravenswood and points upstream. Crests
downstream are currently predicted to stay under moderate flood
stage as of Friday afternoon, but it will be a close call at
numerous locations.
More rain, on and off, is in the forecast through Sunday night.
Please keep abreast of changes to the forecast and our river
products for
the latest.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Motorists should not attempt to drive around barricades or drive
cars through flooded areas.
Caution is urged when walking near riverbanks.
Even 6 inches of fast-moving flood water can knock you off your feet
and a depth of 2 feet will float your car. Never try to walk, swim,
or drive through such swift water. If you come upon flood waters,
stop, turn around and go another way.
Additional information is available at www.weather.gov/ind.
The next statement should be issued Saturday morning by around 800
AM EDT.
