Due to damages caused by flooding, authorities in several counties -Desha, Arkansas, Lincoln, Drew, Bradley and Lonoke, thus far- have locally declared a disaster for their areas. They have not requested assistance from ADEM at this time. However, ADEM area coordinators are in close contact with local coordinators, emergency management and other authorities as they assess damages. With more rain expected across the state over the next two days, we could experience more flooding in additional areas. Please take precautions, especially if you are in areas prone to flooding. And as always we remind you never drive into standing water. Be safe Arkansas. ... See MoreSee Less

A reminder that floodwaters can hide dangers below the surface such as washed out roadways and debris. Always Turn Around, Don't Drown!Many areas of the state have seen heavy rain over the past few days with more to come. In fact, a large section of the state is under a moderate risk of exceeding flash flood guidance as the ground can simply not absorb any more water. ... See MoreSee Less
