<span-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">
<span-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Local emergency officials do not expect any major flooding to result from high water levels in the Savannah
River, but the situation is still being monitored.
<span-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">There is still a possibility for flooding tonight and Monday night, but the river level has gone down slightly,
said Anson Calmes, an emergency manager with the Chatham Emergency Management Agency.
<span-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Right now, the Savannah River at Clyo is at 18 feet, which is down about half of a foot from Thursday night.
So far, CEMA has not seen any evidence for water rising to River Street’s plaza and parking lots or on U.S. 80 between the Bull River and Tybee Island.
<span-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">“That’s a good sign,” Calmes said, “but that doesn’t tell us what the astronomical high tides are going to do.”
<span-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">The highest risk for any flooding tonight is between 7-8:30 p.m., he said, adding that CEMA will be checking
the river from a helicopter.
<span-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">The Coast Guard, too, is monitoring the situation.
<span-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">“We’re expecting it to be managed effectively and really expecting minimal impact,” said Lt. Cmdr. Mark Sawyer
with the Coast Guard’s Marine Safety Unit in Savannah.
<span-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">He said the peak of the river will likely be Monday evening at high tide, which is about 9 p.m. Right now, he
said, it’s important for those operating boats to be aware of their surroundings.
<span-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">“We want boaters to be aware of floating debris possibly coming downstream and to watch mooring lines to prevent
vessel breakaways that could cause additional hazards in the river,” Sawyer said.
<span-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">In the event that water levels do rise atop roadways, police are prepared to close streets where necessary.
