Lots of rain means one thing...an overflowing Riley
We've witnessed flooding in the past. Let's call this high water.
After a week of on and off raining an early morning Sunday storm popped the cork on Riley Creek.
A Nixel warning from Bluffton police at 11:37 a.m. read: "Riley Creek is out of banks. College Ave closed. Precautionary measures to move cars from Cherry and Vance are recommended."
These photos taken at 1 p.m. Sunday, June 14, reveal the Riley while the water receeded.
