The fear of flooding will keep neighbors in some communities from resting easy tonight. Especially the ones that have already been hit once before this week.
The town of Pinch is one of those places. Indian Creek separates many homes from the main road and earlier this week a bridge collapsed into the creek. Neighbors said the water backed up around the brige and washed it away. The creek is still high and now neighbors are fearful of what damage another round of rain could bring. Concerned resident, Carl Anderson said, "I'm going to stay up and monitor what's going on overnight." Flooding is common in Pinch and around Indian Creek. Anderson said he's been washed out at least four times in the last ten years.
