Deschutes County Sheriff's Office Issues Flood and High Water Warning

Streams and creeks in the southern part of the county are expected to flood.  You can see standing water on roads and in low  lying areas.

 

We are expecting more rain on Saturday.

 

Numerous roads throughout the county have standing water that make driving hazardous.

 

The Sheriff's Office has stockpiled sandbags at Deschutes River Woods, LaPine and the Sisters areas.

 

And the Deschutes County Road Department has closed Darlene Way in LaPine from Finley Butte Road to Reed Road and Reed Road to Rosland Road.  The gravel road has washed out in two separate places.  You are asked to avoid this area if possible.  The road will remain closed until water recedes and road repairs can be made.
