It most likely would be speculation anyway..not to be taken as fact. With Irma some area streets flooded temporarily, but think it was mostly due to storm drains being clogged. I was just out with this afternoon's "monsoon" (Friday) and going up towards Southern Trace on Buena Vista, the streets were quite full of rain (more than puddles) as it was coming down heavily. On the way home, it was still raining but not torrentially and all of that had dissapated. T.V. and area weather people do a really good job of keeping us apprised of what's going on. Listen to WVLG as well as other outlets for your information.
