Southern Indiana Flood Drains Roads Bridges and Railways Closely Hit
Southern Indiana endures extreme flooding from days of heavy rain. Ohio Wabash and White rivers rise to record levels, with the Ohio forecast to surpass the 1913 flood. Tick Creek tops water levels, bridges vanish, and the Paoli Orleans road concrete bridge under construction sustains damage. Rail traffic halted, and local express shipments suspended as water blocks routes to West Baden and French Lick. Nearby homes along Lick Creek see rising waters encircling properties.
