Heavy rainfall in excess of an inch on the 22nd caused a six mile section of the Steese Highway between Birch Creek and Circle to washout in spots on the 23rd. Repairs were made to the gravel road on the 23rd, but additional rainfall on the 23rd into the 24th caused another washout on the evening of the 24th with reports of 2 feet of water flowing over the road. The water flowing over the road was likely caused by plugged culverts and was not associated with flash flooding.
