Madison County judge Tony Leago announced Monday an overnight curfew that is in place until further notice.

According to the order, between 11:59 p.m. and 5:00 a.m., "All individuals shall remain in or on personal property and avoid traveling on any public road or highway".

The order goes on to state "Individuals who are traveling to or from a place of employment, assisting with emergency operations at the request of the Emergency Management Coordinator or her designee, traveling through Madison County, Texas, or otherwise unable to comply due to an emergency necessity are exempt from the requirements or this order."
