A Waverly farm lost most of their crops due to flooding
WAVERLY — Looking into the fields of Way's Farm, people can usually expect to see rows and rows of vegetables, but after devastating flooding in Pike County the week of Sept. 9-12, the owners have lost more than half of their seasonal crops. Cameron and Mandy Way, owners of Way Farms, said their farm fell victim to extreme flooding after 10 inches of rain fell from Sept. 9-12.

"Financially, we lost 80 percent of our crops that we had growing in one night. It was very economically devastating." The Ways said there were countless crops lost, such as sweet corn, potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, and more. The most devastating for them was their pumpkin patch, which was supposed to open next week for their yearly pick-your-pumpkin patch. Now, where rows of pumpkins once stood, lie mud and displaced plants. "This is worse flooding than we experienced in 2023 with Hurricane Helene," Mandy said.

Floodwaters rise quickly, forcing water rescues Saturday
WAVERLY, Ohio — At 7:56 p.m., Saturday, the Waverly Fire Department was dispatched to the 100 block of Woodland Park Road for a water rescue of occupants trapped in their home by floodwaters. The Waverly Water Rescue Team mobilized and, upon approaching the area, found several feet of fast-moving water covering U.S. 23. The current was driven by an overflowing creek, preventing teams from safely entering the water to reach the original address. A secondary rescue attempt was then made at a residence in the 15000 block of U.S. 23. Two divers launched a small rescue boat, but the current swept them off course before they could reach the house. The boat struck a tree and the divers went overboard. Ground personnel quickly threw ropes and successfully rescued both divers without injuries. The boat was lost in the current and could not be recovered at that time. Piketon Seal Township Volunteer Fire Department was requested for water-rescue mutual aid and arrived with a hovercraft. Crews reached the U.S. 23 residence and found two occupants and a cat inside. Floodwater was in the home, and the structure had shifted off its foundation. Because the water was receding rapidly at the time,
