Huge Cleanup Effort Underway in Pine Valley After Severe Flash Flooding

Just months after the Forsyth Fire, which burned over 15,000 acres and 13 homes, Pine Valley faces a new threat: floods.

The area experienced severe flash flooding from Hurricane Priscilla, with water reaching five feet deep and 400 feet wide, according to Pine Valley Fire Chief Robert Hardy.

Hardy said the flooding occurred in areas of the burn scar, as the depleted soil was unable to absorb the rain.

The area experienced severe flash flooding this weekend from Hurricane Priscilla.

Pine Valley faces a huge cleanup effort after the severe flash flooding.
