The Tippecanoe River at Ora is currently at 9.77 feet and forecast to rise to 12.4 feet by late Monday. The flood stage is 12 feet.
Marshall County is currently under a Watch Level travel advisory which means only essential travel, such as to and from work or in emergency situations, is recommended.
Several roads have been closed due to high water while other areas have high water signs posted.
County officials are seeing an increase in water levels in ditches, creeks, and retention ponds. Ponding water is also causing flooding issues in homes with basements and crawl spaces that may not have experienced flood issues in the past.
Sand and sandbags are available at the old Emergency Management Agency office located at 9515 King Road in Plymouth, which is just north of the Marshall County Highway Garage. Individuals wanting sandbags will need to bring their own shovel.
Additionally, a Winter Storm Warning remains in effect through Thursday at midnight ET.
