Yesterday was interesting. Over 6" of rain in some areas around Detroit. Took our son around 3 hrs to get home. He was on the Lodge freeway, had to get off because it was closed. Got on the Davison to try to get to I-96, had to get off. Made via surface streets to I-96 then had to get off. Took Plymouth Rd to Telegraph to M-5 and finally back to I-96.
I-696 and I-75 is still under water. The water in the underpass was up to the bridge, around 14'. Every freeway in the area was closed at some point due to flooding and many are still closed. Some may be closed for days while they move all the abandoned cars out and clean up the mud and crud on the freeway. I think they said 32 cars were under water just at the I-696 - I-75 interchange.
Hope no one in area had any basement flooding. We didn't get the heavy rains here, Livingston county was one of the few without flood warnings.
