"Over the past 12 hours, rainfall in Clinton County has caused significant flooding leading to dangerous conditions in certain areas. I am closely monitoring the situation and have directed my team to assist local officials however necessary. We have already deployed personnel with the State's Office of Emergency Management to monitor the situation and provide support to local leaders. The entire county is under a flash flood warning until 3:15 PM today, and I encourage all residents to take appropriate precautions: avoid flooded roads, carefully monitor local forecasts, and prepare supplies in the unlikely event of an evacuation order."
