CINCINNATI – High water and fallen trees are creating havoc for drivers after a second day of almost steady hard rain.
A tree fell across Beechmont Avenue near Salem Road Saturday afternoon, blocking two lanes until it was cleared just before 5 p.m..
High water temporarily closed Columbia Parkway between Kemper Road and Fort Washington Way, according to ODOT.
Hamilton County Dispatch reported high water at Sutton and Kellogg avenues, southbound I-75 at Shepherd Lane, and Rt. 128 between Morgan and Chidlaw.
There are multiple wires down in the county. However, Duke Energy has not reported any major outages.
