There are numerous roads in the county that have water over them and will for some time until it has had a chance to receed.

When mother nature keeps dumping several inches of rain in one spot in a short amount of time there is just not enough places for the water to go.

I know we sound like a broken record here, but please - DO NOT drive through flooded roadways. There have already been several cars stranded this evening from doing just that.

It doesn't matter how good or how bad a drainage system is, Mother Nature will always win.
