Flash Flooding Pics...

Here are some of the photos of the flooding in Carroll County near Mt. Carroll. These photos were taken by a CBS4 viewer Thursday evening. If you happen to come across a flooded roadway like one of these, don't even attempt to drive through the water! Just don't do it, even if the water doesn't look that deep, or if you think your car is high enough to get over the water or other drivers are driving into the water. Most flash flooding related deaths occur from drivers trying to get through the water with their vehicles. According to studies done by the National Weather Service, more than half of all people killed by floods are people who are in their vehicles. So Turn Around!
