Our Transportation Dept has been notified that some roads in the county are closed due to high water. Significant rain during the last two hours has hit the western part of the county hard, though we expect to hear similar reports throughout the northwestern part of the county.

Our drivers are aware of conditions and will use extreme caution. Roads that are not passable will not be traveled on by buses.
Any absence or tardy for weather-related reasons will be excused.
