Water, mud cover roadways across Yazoo

Water and mud are covering roadways at several locations through Yazoo, creating hazardous driving conditions, a Facebook post said. The post noted that Highway 49 East is covered in several different spots.

“If you can not see the road clearly please slow down,” the post said. Officials and first responders were not identified in the post; the message said updates would be provided as reports come in.

Roadways covered by water and mud can obscure pavement, hide hazards and increase the risk of crashes or vehicle damage. Motorists encountering flooded or muddy sections should reduce speed, use caution and avoid driving through standing water when visibility is poor.

This report is based on a social media posting with limited details. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
