On the Beat in Bluffton

January floods leave distinctive landscape

The twin hydrologic factors of a mid-winter warm spell — rain and melting snow —  combined to raise the Wabash River at Bluffton more than 5 feet over its flood stage this week.

By Thursday, though, Bluffton’s aptly-named River Road was the only thoroughfare that remained closed due to high waters.

However, before the water recedes completely, enjoy these photos from our readers and Facebook friends.
