High noon in BlufftonJune 27, 2015

High water isn’t new in Bluffton.

But each time it occurs the photos remind us of how quick the quiet little stream that flows through Bluff-ton can turn against us.

The photos in this collection show water levels between noon and 1 p.m. on Saturday, June 27, 2015. At this time only East College Avenue was closed to traffic.

Water continues to rise. Watch for a late afternoon photo comparision.
