Heavy rains lead to flooding impacts in Greater Cincinnati. Here's what to know
Heavy rains after a series of severe storms over the past week have flooded roads in parts of Greater Cincinnati and led to some residents being asked to leave their homes. Although the worst rainfall is over, the National Weather Service continues to warn of flooding and high water impacts as showers are expected to persist throughout the day. Here's what to know about flooding impacts across Greater Cincinnati and what to expect: Sunday morning, the National Weather Service issued a flood statement saying the flood warning continues for the Ohio River at Cincinnati until further notice. The Ohio River has reached moderate flooding levels for the first time since 2021, the National Water Prediction Service says. The river is expected to crest at 60 feet by Monday morning. Forecasters say residents should expect significant flooding in East End, California and New Richmond, Ohio, as well as backwater floods in Silver Grove, KY, and riverfront buildings flooded in Aurora, Indiana. Stretches of U.S. Route 52 will become flooded, along with additional low-lying roads near the river, and backwater flooding is expected along the Little Miami, Great Miami and Licking rivers, forecasters said. The main levels of homes in the East End could also become flooded. Weather-related road closures affected numerous thoroughfares in Southwest Ohio and Northern Kentucky. Most of those roads were located in Kenton and Campbell counties, where mudslides have also been an issue. Transportation officials are urging motorists to check travel conditions before they take to the roads and to never drive through flooded roadways. Residents in the area of Virginia Avenue and 45th Street in Covington have been asked to take shelter at Latonia Elementary School in response to National Weather Service models showing possible flooding near the intersection of Banklick Creek and the Licking River, city officials said in a Facebook post on Saturday night. Officials said anyone wishing to stay at the shelter should head for the school's rear entrance. The Licking River near Visalia was last observed Sunday morning at a little more than 57 feet, according to the National Weather Service. At Falmouth, Kentucky, the Licking River is forecast to reach a major flood stage by Sunday night, with numerous streets there expected to be covered with water. A woman experiencing homelessness fell asleep overnight on the stage of the Procter and Gamble Pavilion at Sawyer Point but when she awoke, she was surrounded by water, said Lindsay Haegele, a Cincinnati Fire Department spokesperson. First responders were dispatched to the park and had to deploy boats to bring the woman to safety. Haegele said no injuries were reported from the incident.
