In 2001, heavy rain and thunderstorms persisted across the west central Georgia area throughout the afternoon and early evening forcing creeks and rivers out of their banks and flooding roads in many areas. Rainfall amounts of 3 to 6 inches were common throughout the region. The Chattahoochee River Walk in Columbus was flooded as the Chattahoochee River rose to 28 feet, which is within 6 feet of flood stage (flood stage is 34 feet). In Americus in Sumter County, several homes were flooded and some roads were blocked as water became so deep that cars could not pass safely. |
