Soaking
rains have fallen in Middle Georgia over the past two weeks and forecasters say
there’s a risk of flooding from the downpours.
The
National Weather Service has issued numerous flood watches and warnings over
the past week as a result of the rain.
Here in Houston County the rain has slowed down some
activities.
Like on Friday, Perry High School’s baseball team was
supposed to play at Houston County High. Panther coach Shawn Masters, looking
over a soaked Panther Pit Monday, said he got a call from his Houston
counterpart, Jason Brett, about maybe instead having kayak races in the
infield.
Masters said the rain for the whole month of February has
taken away a week’s worth of practice time on the field and more postponed
games than games played.
Veterans High was supposed to play Warner Robins at home
Friday as well. David Coffey, the Warhawks coach, said that game will be played
at 5 p.m. Friday. But Tuesday’s game, against Houston County, was called off
due to the additional Monday evening downpours.
