People who live along Fourpole Creek in Huntington found themselves gathering at the West 5th Street bridge to share concerns about the stream on Friday, April 4, 2025.

Fourpole Creek ran swift and high Friday morning, its waters coming within about a foot of the large road deck support beams of the bridge at West 5th Street and Whitaker Boulevard.

People gathered there to watch the water pass and to see if they needed to take action should the water reached the height it did back in February, when it flooded houses near its bank in Huntington.
