From the Linn County Kansas Emergency Management

Water is coming up in various areas around the County. The Fire Department is currently headed to a water rescue situation with an individual stuck in their home by flood waters that have reached their home.

If you live in an area prone to flooding, PLEASE evacuate now before you become trapped in your home. It is very dangerous for both you and our rescuers if we have to attempt to get to you and bring you out by boat (assuming we can even make it to you).

Rain and storms are expected to continue throughout the day/night and flooding issues are expected to get worse as is the chance for severe weather this afternoon and evening.

Mid America Live News will continue to update with more information about the flooding in Linn County.
