Kait channel 8 in Jonesbore said that Spring River at Hardy is predicted to rise 4ft or more in the next 8 hours. If you know anyone or have any friends that lives where it floods you might give them a call and tell them.
Kait said they need to start evacuating. That the river is going to come up fast tonight.
If you know anyone that might be in danger of the high waters please give them a call.

springfield is also reporting flooding from the "SpringRiver tonight (Friday)May want to evacuate be on the side of caution.

Must not be raining anywhere lately. Haven't seen anybody complaining about it in the last couple of days. Either that or you guys have all washed away!

Okay forget this. Starting to storm here with tornado watches/warnings in my area. So, I guess I could possible be washed away, or rather blown away, too. Darn this weather.
