Comment on Latest on flooding: Oklahoma roads, bridges still flooded

Recent storms that have generated record-breaking rainfall and extensive flooding in Texas and Oklahoma have been blamed for a total of 21 deaths so far. An Oklahoma emergency official says the state is still trying to get a sense of how many residents were displaced or left homeless by recent storms and flooding. Keli Cain, a spokeswoman for the Oklahoma Department of Emergency Management, said Thursday that several bridges that service main roads remain flooded in Marshall County, along Oklahoma’s border with Texas, and that some residents are effectively cut off.
