Flood-Prone Areas within Indian River Fire District

An afternoon survey of the Indian River’s fire district yeilded the following observations.

Delaware Governor Jack Markell stated “…though predicted rainfall totals have dropped and the expected path of Hurricane Joaquin remains well off-coast, high winds and coastal flooding will significantly impact Sussex County….

Assets of the Delaware National Guard have been deployed to Kent and Sussex counties to act in support of local efforts. Markell also reminded residents of flood-prone areas to prepare for possible evacuation and to continue to monitor local media and messages from state and local agencies for updates.”
