Hydrograph
of the flooding from Big Nance Creek at Courtland, with reference
stages (click for a larger image).
Water covers County Road 150 just
south of Courtland. Although an emergency vehicle was able to
get through this...we ask that you always Turn
Around...Don't Drown!
A view of Big Nance Creek in Courtland. Normally the creek has a very
deep channel; but in flood, has turned into a very wide channel
instead.
Flood waters from Big Nance Creek cut these homes off from the rest of
the town of Courtland.
We're not joking: this
really is Water Street in Courtland.
