What Floods at Each Level
17 ft
Major flooding begins. Widespread innundation of water expands further into the woodlands and fields near the creek upstream and downstream from the gage on Georgia Highway 212 or Scott Highway. The bridge forms an obstacle and acts like a dam causing some backwater and erosion eddies to the sides of the bridge. The water level reaches the top of the bridge. The depth of water on the road at the bridge will be around two feet deep. The water level reaches the gage house. Data may not be reliable.
15 ft
Moderate flooding continues to expand further into the woodlands and fields near the creek upstream and downstream from the gage on Georgia Highway 212 or Scott Highway. The bridge forms an obstacle and acts like a dam causing some backwater and erosion eddies to the sides of the bridge. Portions of the highway begin to flood near the bridge. This will likely cause local officials to close it.
13 ft
Moderate flooding begins. Significant flooding will continue to expand further into the woodlands and fields upstream and downstream from the gage on Georgia Highway 212 or Scott Highway. The water level reaches the bottom of the bridge. This may cause local officials to close it due to possible erosion around the supports.
11 ft
Minor flooding will continue to expand further into the woodlands and fields of the natural flood plain upstream and downstream from the gage on Georgia Highway 212 or Scott Highway.
9 ft
Flood stage is reached. Minor flooding will occur in portions of the woodlands and fields near the creek upstream and downstream from the gage on Georgia Highway 212 or Scott Highway.
7 ft
Bankfull conditions are reached upstream and downstream on the creek from the gage at Georgia Highway 212 or Scott Highway.
