ai generated text
A state of emergency has been declared by Governor Ron DeSantis for several counties in South Florida, including Broward, Collier, Lee, Miami-Dade, and Sarasota, due to heavy rainfall that has caused widespread flooding. According to reports, six to over 20 inches of rain have fallen in the region since Tuesday morning. Flood warnings are currently in effect through Thursday morning for parts of Broward, Miami-Dade, Collier, and Hendry counties.
Just the mere presence of the Central American gyre forming tells us that summer is here and the rainy season is about to begin.
Please stay off the roadways and get to higher ground.
Many areas are inundated with water w/ stalled cars & more rainfall is on the way.
Even a small duration of heavy rainfall could lead to more flash flooding!.
