As Tropical Depression Cristobal moves inland, it continues to lose strength. But the storm is still expected to produce high winds and isolated intense rainfall across Missouri Monday night into Tuesday.
MoDOT is urging drivers to be aware of rapidly changing weather conditions and to be prepared for flooded roads and the possibility of downed trees and road debris.
Drivers are reminded to take heed of a few lifesaving tips:

  • Don’t drive through flooded areas.
  • When you see water over the roadway, assume that the roadway below it is either damaged or destroyed.
  • Turn Around! Don’t Drown!
  • Steer clear of downed power lines and road debris.
  • Wipers on, headlights on! It’s the law.

Heavy rain and localized river crests can cause road conditions to change quickly.  KMMO will keep you informed of closed roadways. For the most up to date information on current road conditions, visit MoDOT’s Traveler Information Map or call MoDOT at 888-ASK-MODOT that’s 888-275-6636.
