The Montgomery County Emergency Management Agency reports C Ave/Boxelder between 150th and 170th, will be closed due to water over the roadway. Please avoid the area and find an alternate route of travel. A reminder, when you see water over the road, “Turn around. Don’t Drown.”

The National Weather Service says 6-inches of water will reach the bottom of most passenger cars causing loss of control and possible stalling. 12-inches of water will float many vehicles. Two-feet of rushing water can carry away most vehicles including sport utility vehicles (SUV’s) and pick-ups.
