Unlike the flooding that occurred on Wheeling Island to the north and in Ma- rietta and Parkersburg to the south, lo- cally the impact was primarily limited to flooding low-lying and flood-prone areas along the Ohio River, the eastern end of Sunfish Creek in Ohio and Mid- dle Island Creek in West Virginia, as well as road closures. On the Ohio side, Ohio Route 7 was flooded and closed four miles north o f Newport as well as to the south, just past The Jug Restaurant. Farther north, the road was closed about a mile south of the New Martinsville Bridge, at the southern end of Duffy, although several people with pick-up trucks did attempt to brave the high waters despite the road being closed. Route 7 was also flooded and closed be- tween Sardis and Fly, as well as between Fly and New Matamoras. One photo posted to social media showed a red pickup truck in Sardis Sistersville VFD firefighter Andrew Pratt uses the high-pressure fire hose to clear mud. See more photos on pages 3-4.
