* until 600 am CDT Saturday

* at 601 PM CDT... state and local officials still report numerous
Road closures over the warning area caused by heavy rainfall from
Thursday and Thursday night. The most extensive flooding was
occuring on creeks and streams along and south of Highway
156 in Knox County... and along and west of Highway 15 in Shelby
and Monroe counties.

This warning includes the cities of... Novelty... Shelbina... Clarence
and Madison.

Most flood deaths occur in automobiles. Never drive your vehicle into
areas where the water covers the roadway. Flood waters are usually
deeper than they appear. Just one foot of flowing water is powerful
enough to sweep vehicles off the Road. When encountering flooded
roads make the smart choice... turn around... dont drown.

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the
dangers of flooding. If flooding is observed act quickly. Move up to
higher ground to escape flood waters. Do not stay in areas subject to
flooding when water begins rising.
