Intense rain in parts of Florida has submerged neighborhoods, turned roads into rivers, closed schools and left more than 108,000 customers without power.
Heavy rain fell over central and southern Florida from Wednesday into early Thursday because of a slow-moving storm system over the Gulf of Mexico.
As many as 7 million people were under flood watches Wednesday. Meanwhile, strong onshore winds created gusts that reached 74 mph at an elevated weather station near Miami and 63 mph at Dania Pier near Fort Lauderdale.
Yeah it's pretty wild what exists outside of the public eye. I've watched various documentaries and other things about all the hidden infrastructure. I'm actually reading a book about it now called The Works.
I figured the high rises down here were the best choice since they're new and are built with the storms in mind, you're also pretty high up so no risk of flooding. We just had a massive storm about three days ago, it dropped 9" of rain in under 48 hours. It poured for over 15 hours straight!
