COOPERSTOWN – Rain, sleet and warmer temperatures may have made the rivers rise, but according to Robert O'Brien, Director of 911 Communications for the county, all roads in Otsego are clear and no flood warnings are in effect.

"We have seen an increase in requests for Fire Departments to respond to flooded basement calls," he said. "But they're very minor at this point. It is evident that through the hard work of our Town, Village, State and County Highway crews, issues with flooded roadways have been very minimal. At this point in time, we are not aware of any present or ongoing issues. "
