WARSAW — More rain on Wednesday afternoon further saturated Kosciusko County, but conditions in parts of Fulton and Marshall counties worsened.

The National Weather Service received more reports of flooding in the northern parts of those two counties, and a flood warning was in effect until 8 a.m. Thursday, said Meteorologist Chris Roller.

A flood watch has been in effect across northern Indiana since Tuesday, but small pockets across the region remained under a flood warning Thursday morning. Graphic provided by the National Weather Service.

But that status could change again with more rain in the forecast.

Roller said some additional rain is likely on Thursday. While a short dry period is expected on Friday, more showers could arrive on Saturday

“I think having the dryer Friday is going to help, but the ground is soggy, and there’s only so much runoff that can occur,” Roller said.

Low-lying areas have seen flooding that began about ten days ago across parts of the county.

Water levels along part of Sunset Drive near Anchorage Road and west of Little Pike Lake in Warsaw remain high.

“We’re starting to see the impacts occur as a result,” Roller said.

He said rain totals in Warsaw from Wednesday to Saturday could total two inches.

Thursday’s high is expected to reach 73, but a significant cooldown will arrive over the weekend.
