STANISLAUS COUNTY – A flood warning was issued by the Office of Emergency Services Thursday, warning residents near the town of Newman of several road closures.
Significant flooding of the Orestimba Creek has prompted several road closures. They are the following:
Bell Road from Anderson to West Stuhr, Eastin Road from Anderson to West Stuhr, and Jorgensen Road from Anderson to West Stuhr.
Although there was no rain Friday, the roadways were very much under several feet of water. Emergency officials warn to mind the road closures and not attempt to drive through any flooded roads. Several barricades and flood warnings were in place to warn drivers.
