Rain continues to fall in Cape Region

High tides expected to cause excessive flooding in coastal areas
October 3, 2022

The rain continued to fall Oct. 3, as the poor weather conditions caused by the weakened Hurricane Ian storm system persisted in the Cape Region for the fourth straight day. 

In Milton, flooding has closed Front Street near the wastewater treatment plant as well as Magnolia Street, where an ongoing project is aimed fixing frequent flooding. The Broadkill River has crept into Memorial Park, with legs of riverfront benches now part of the river. 

High tides are expected to reach levels not seen in several years over Tuesday Oct. 4, and possibly Wednesday, Oct. 5, causing excessive flooding along coastal areas and the back bays areas of the Cape Region.
