15	Major flooding continues with widespread inundation of the fields and woodlands upstream and downstream from the gage on Kingston Highway or Georgia Highway 293. The water level hits the bridge and covers the highway with erosion to the banks. A few structures near the creek will be flooded with at least a foot of water. The USGS gage house around 100 yards upstream and on the right bank from the bridge will be under water with a loss of data.
14	Major flooding begins. Widespread inundation flooding occurs in the fields and woodlands upstream and downstream from the gage on Kingston Highway or Georgia Highway 293. The water level hits the bridge and will likely cause erosion to the banks. County officials will likely close it. A few structures near the creek will be flooded. The USGS gage house around 100 yards upstream and on the right bank from the bridge will be under water with a loss of data.
12	Significant flooding continues to expand in the fields and woodlands along the creek upstream and downstream from the gage on Kingston Highway or Georgia Highway 293. The water level begins to hit the bottom of the bridge and may cause erosion to the banks. County officials will likely close it. The water level reaches the bottom of the USGS gage house around 100 yards upstream and on the right bank from the bridge. A loss of data transmission will be possible.
11	Moderate flooding begins. Significant flooding occurs in the fields and woodlands along the creek upstream and downstream from the gage on Kingston Highway or Georgia Highway 293. The water level reaches the bottom of the bridge and county officials may close it.
9	Minor flooding continues to expand in the fields and woodlands along the creek upstream and downstream from the gage on Kingston Highway or Georgia Highway 293.
