JCSO and Local Volunteer FD's are conducting high water rescues

Due to the excessive rainfall, many of our rural roads with Jefferson County are holding water making some roadways impassable. We have had a number of citizens call for assistance in evacuating their homes. JCSO Deputies and your local Volunteer Fire Departments are currently conducting high water rescues ranging from the China/Nome area, all the way over to Highway 73. If a citizen is in need of rescue we ask that they call the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office at 409-835-8411.
