Aviso de inundación

...The Flood Warning continues for the following rivers in Florida...

Horse Creek Near Arcadia at SR 72 affecting DeSoto County.

Withlacoochee At US 41 Dunnellon affecting Levy, Citrus and Marion
Counties.

.Due to recent heavy rainfall water levels remain elevated along the
Horse Creek near Arcadia, and is expected to drop below flood stage
overnight.

The Withlacoochee River at Dunnellon has been steadily rising since
July, and on September 15 reached flood stage. The cause of the high
water along the Withlacoochee River at Dunnellon is due to excessive
hydrilla growth (from the river bottom to the water surface) along a
4.5 mile stretch of river between US 41 and Lake Rousseau.  The
hydrilla is acting like a dam and holding water back, causing water
levels to rise.
