From SRF Red Flag

Due to Hurricane Irene this past weekend - which dropped about 6 inches of rain on the South River watershed - causing the bacteria concentration to be at unsafe levels for swimming, we have put out our red "caution" flag at the office. If you see this red flag hanging from our office balcony, then the South River is generally unsafe for swimming.--Diana
