BAYARD, Iowa (AP) – Emergency officials say flash flooding has covered several roadways in central and southern Iowa. Taylor and Ringgold counties were under flash flood warnings early this (Monday) morning, following rainfall estimated at up to 2 inches from passing storms.
The National Weather Service also has issued flood warnings for parts of Audubon, Boone, Carroll, Dallas and Guthrie counties. Late last night, 4.7-inches of rain that fell between 8-and 10-p.m., was recorded in Coon Rapids. Widespread flooding was reported across northern Guthrie County. All paved roads north of Iowa Highway 141 west of Highway 4 to Coon Rapids are closed, with water still rising in northern Bagley, backing-up from Mosquito Creek. Springbrook State Park was evacuated.
The Iowa DOT reported at around 1:30-a.m. Highway 25 was closed 2 mile east of Bayard due to flooding, with a detour route established around Bayard.
No injuries have been reported.

The Flash Flood Watch that was in effect for most the KJAN listening area until 10-am today has been cancelled, with the exception of Adams Union Taylor and Ringgold Counties. A Flash Flood Watch will be in effect this evening beginning at 7 o’clock and running through 7-a.m. Tuesday, for Cass-Adair-Adams-Audubon-Guthrie-Dallas-Fremont-Harrison-Mills-Montgomery-Page-Pottawattamie-Shelby-Union-Taylor-Ringgold Counties.

The National Weather Service says showers and thunderstorms with potentially heavy flash flooding will continue early this morning, but should diminish toward midday. The overall flash flooding potential will not end by then, however. More showers and thunderstorms with heavy rain are expected again tonight. Rainfall amounts may reach one-to three-inches, with locally higher amounts possible. And, with soils already saturated in many areas, more flash flooding may occur.
A Flood Warning remains in effect until 2-a.m. Tuesday for northern Audubon, Dallas, and Guthrie Counties, along with southeastern Carroll County.
