No major damage reported from flooding

LLANO, Texas (KXAN) - Residents in Sandy Harbor in Llano County remember the flood of 1995 well.  Many homes had water in their attics. 

As the rain fell Wednesday night into Thursday morning residents watched as the Walnut and Sandy creeks began rising out of their banks. 

Beverly in the Sandy Harbor area near Walnut and Sandy creeks reported the two creeks flooding up over her docks by 2- to 3 feet at 1:08 a.m. Thursday.

Another Sandy Harbor resident said she lives three houses down from where Sandy Creek runs into Walnut Creek and reported that the flood is a much different experience than she is used to.

"We moved here in 2000, and none of the floods we have had here have brought the water up as high as it has tonight," said Jeanie Paschall at 3:25 a.m. Thursday.

Luckily in the end it didn't cause much damage.

According to the Ron Moore the Llano County Emergency Management Coordinator at one point Sandy Creek reached 17 feet.  As of Thursday morning at 5:30 a.m. it had dropped to 14.3 feet, just 2 feet out of its banks.  The creeks are described as typically the type of water way where you can walk across or maybe put a canoe in.

As of Thursday morning no mandatory evacuations had taken place and no emergency shelters were open.  County emergency management said they didn't expect that would be needed since most of the flooding was minor.

Those driving in the area should be aware that the majority of low water crossings are closed along with several county roads. Drivers should use extra caution on their way to work or school.
