Road to South Rupununi Cut Off.

The road serving dozens of Villages, settlements and ranches throughout the South Rupununi Savannas has been cut off due to flooding. The creeks feeding the Takutu river have backed up causing the obstruction

As mentioned previously it is typical to see an early moderate spike in water levels prior to a major flood but the amplitude of this surge or 'warning shot' is reportedly unprecedented in comparison to recent years.

Two emergency calls came in this morning from that district with a retained placenta at Sawariwau and a case of multiple fractures in Aishalton. The aircraft is responding at this time. Thank you for supporting the work of Remote Area Medical.
