CARRIZO SPRINGS, Texas – Rising water is beginning to impact Dimmit County, prompting a public safety notice urging residents near rivers and low-lying areas to prepare for rapidly changing conditions.<\/p>\n
Officials said water has arrived in Dimmit County and rivers have begun flowing. Residents who live near Midway Park Road, Espantosa Subdivision, FM 1433, Soldier Slough Crossing, or any property with river frontage or river access are urged to use extreme caution as water levels continue to rise.<\/p>\n
As water moves through the area, it may begin flowing over roadways, which can lead to road closures. Officials warned that closures could make it difficult or even impossible for emergency responders to reach residents, or for people to safely leave the area.<\/p>\n
Residents are reminded not to drive through flooded roadways, to be prepared for changing conditions and possible road closures, and to continue monitoring local weather and emergency updates. People who live in flood-prone areas are also urged to have a plan in place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CARRIZO SPRINGS, Texas – Rising water is beginning to impact Dimmit County, prompting a public safety notice urging…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":376055,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[82,84,83],"class_list":["post-376054","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-antonio","tag-san-antonio","tag-san-antonio-headlines","tag-san-antonio-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/376054","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=376054"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/376054\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/376055"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=376054"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=376054"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=376054"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
