  "bodyMd": "**NWS Aberdeen SD issued a Flood Warning** on Aug. 13, 2026, 6:28 a.m. MDT / 7:28 a.m. CDT, according to the National Weather Service's public alert record.\n\nThe alert states an effective time of Aug. 13, 2026, 6:28 a.m. MDT / 7:28 a.m. CDT, an onset of Aug. 13, 2026, 6:28 a.m. MDT / 7:28 a.m. CDT, and an expiry of Aug. 13, 2026, 12 p.m. MDT / 1 p.m. CDT. South Dakota spans two time zones and this alert may reach both, so each instant is shown in Mountain and then Central time; the office's own published offset is preserved in the machine-readable record.\n\nThe alert separately states that the hazard itself ends at Aug. 13, 2026, 12 p.m. MDT / 1 p.m. CDT. That is a different field from the message's expiry above and the two can differ.\n\nWhether this alert is currently in effect is not stated in this text, deliberately: it depends on the time you are reading, so 605Buzz computes it from the expiry above each time the page is loaded rather than storing an answer that would go out of date without anyone noticing. The status shown at the top of this page is the computed one.\n\nThe issuing office classified this message as severity \"Severe\", certainty \"Likely\" and urgency \"Expected\". Those are the National Weather Service's own categories, reproduced exactly; 605Buzz does not re-rank them or translate them into a scale of its own.\n\nThe recommended response type on the message is \"Avoid\".\n\nThe alert names these areas: Hyde, SD. The National Weather Service zone codes are SDC069.\n\nThe issuing office's own summary line, as written on Aug. 13, 2026, 6:28 a.m. MDT / 7:28 a.m. CDT:\n\n> FLOOD WARNING NOW IN EFFECT UNTIL 1 PM CDT THIS AFTERNOON\n\nThe full text of the alert as issued on Aug. 13, 2026, 6:28 a.m. MDT / 7:28 a.m. CDT, reproduced without changes:\n\n> \\* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues.\n>\n> \\* WHERE...East Central Hyde County in central South Dakota...\n>\n> \\* WHEN...Until 100 PM CDT.\n>\n> \\* IMPACTS...Numerous roads remain closed due to flooding. It will\n> take several hours for all the water from these storms to work\n> through local drainage systems in urban areas.\n>\n> \\* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...\n> - At 726 AM CDT, emergency management reported heavy rain in the\n> warned area due to thunderstorms. Flooding is already occurring.\n> Between 3 and 6 inches of rain have fallen. Multiple county roads\n> have been reported to have water over portions of them and road\n> closures are underway.\n> - Some locations that will experience flooding include...\n> Highmore.\n> - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood\n\nThe protective-action text the issuing office attached, reproduced without changes:\n\n> Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood\n> deaths occur in vehicles.\n>\n> Be aware of your surroundings and do not drive on flooded roads.\n\nThe National Weather Service superseded this message at Aug. 13, 2026, 11:56 a.m. MDT / 12:56 p.m. CDT with a later one. This article records the message as issued.\n\nThis alert is a work of the United States federal government — the National Weather Service, part of NOAA — and is in the **public domain**; no copyright is claimed on it and none is asserted here. 605Buzz reproduces the record and does not add meteorological judgement. For live conditions and alerts, go to the [National Weather Service](https://www.weather.gov/).\n\n605Buzz publishes alerts the National Weather Service gave a window of two hours or longer, and checks once a day. Short-notice warnings — including tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings, which the service typically issues for under an hour — are NOT carried here, so their absence from this site says nothing about whether one was issued.
