[ARCHIVED] Storm Damage

Town of Oakland

The Town experienced significant flash flooding last night, washing out some of our unpaved roads. Please know that the Town is working diligently to grade five miles of these storm-damaged roads.
The Town recorded 4.14 inches of rainfall in in approximately two hours near Arrington Street, with 3 inches coming down between 8 and 9 p.m. The ground had already been saturated from more than 4 inches of rain during the past month, and low-lying areas in and around the historic area were inundated when the summer storm passed through.
We thank you for your patience as we work to repair the damage left by the storm.
