Hope you didn’t have to go anywhere important this morning, because the rain is causing disaster on the roadways. Twice on my way to work this morning I had to drive through incredibly deep puddles. First, Palmer Rd. in Midtown by the new Art Place Condos was totally flooded out – I had to reverse and do a U-turn on a one way road. Anthony Wayne just before Forest was starting to flood as well.

The newly paved I-96 Westbound was fine this morning but the eastbound lanes were all jammed up. I just got a call from a friend who is stuck on I-75 southbound and apparently the freeway is flooded underneath several of the overpasses. She’s been on the freeway since 6:30 (it’s 8am now) and is only halfway from Troy to New Center.
