Closed roads – FM 2583 at the Selma Park boat dock on Amon Carter; FM 1956 from Blue Mound Road to FM 3301; State Highway 101 at the Montague/Wise County line; FM 1806 behind Old Bowie Lake; FM 1806 from Stoneburg to Montague; FM 103; and FM 2953 at Lake Nocona.

U.S. 81 at FM 1806 has high water and could close at any time.

PICTURED – It was just a few weeks ago when FM 1806 near Old Bowie Lake was repaired into a low water crossing after the road was washed out in the mid-May flooding. Thursday morning the road appeared to be more of a river than any crossing. The road is closed to traffic. (Photo by Barbara Green)
