TUESDAY'S STORM REPORTS

What a Tuesday! Strong winds and heavy rains really caused some trouble yesterday afternoon. Flooding in the city, manhole covers blown off of sewers, and knocked-down trees were all reported in the area.

There were also many reports of cars stalling in high water. Remember the old saying "Turn around, don't drown". When water covers the roads, you should never attempt to cross it. When it comes to weather related deaths, this is how most people die. Luckily, we did not have any of those reports from yesterday.
