Cleanup continues after heavy rains pounded the Ozarks Saturday. KSMU's Michele Skalicky has more.
Galena in Stone County was hit hard by floodwaters Saturday. Mobile homes were washed away and a full campground was swamped causing several campers to lose vehicles and trailers. Flooding was also a problem in nearby Taney County. The county's emergency manager Chris Berndt says areas that were damaged were primarily along Turkey Creek and Bull Creek.
Berndt says a bridge was washed away on Lakeshore Drive at Kanekuk Camps and a low water crossing was destroyed in Coon Creek. 17 other areas were damaged by floodwaters. He says 4 to 7 inches of rain fell Saturday in Taney County.
They're currently assessing damages and will wait to see if the county is declared a disaster and thus eligible for state and federal funds. They're also working to get roads repaired and reopened.
To report damages, call Taney County Emergency Management at 334-3440.
