Roads can start to open as Ohio River starts to fall
High water is still impacting many roads in most western Kentucky counties, but progress can now come slowly as the Ohio has receded upstream, and is cresting in Paducah.
However, at the same time, a rainy forecast this Easter weekend could develop into a chance for two or more inches of rain in places. According to the National Weather Service, this could aggravate flash flooding in small creeks and streams.
As water goes down, motorists are asked to not move barricades or signs. Road conditions below water, even if shallow, are unknown and could be dangerous.
