MELROSE HIT LATE THIS MORNING,
IT'S THE SECOND SUCH STRIKE IN
THE TOWN THIS MONTH.
AS DANIELLE MENTIONED, A LOT
OF FLASH FLOODING IN PARTS OF
BRISTOL COUNTY.
NEWSCENTER 5'S PAM CROSS IS
LIVE WITH US FROM TAUNTON,
TROUBLE EARLIER TODAY, PAM?
THE WORST IS OVER AT LEAST
IN TERMS OF FLASH FLOODING.
WE'RE ON WEIR STREET WHERE IT
DID COME DOWN.
YOU CAN SEE SOME OF THE
REMNANTS OF WHAT WAS LEFT
BEHIND DURING RUSH HOUR.
WE'D LIKE TO CALL IT RAIN
DELAY.
TAKE A LOOK AT THIS VIDEO, YOU
CAN SEE LOCAL STREET FLOODING,
IT MAKES RIDING AND WALKING
TOUGH.
POLICE SHUT DOWN A PORTION OF
COUNTY STREET HERE IN TAUNTON
BECAUSE PONDING WAS SO
DANGEROUS.
THE WIND WAS NOT A FACTOR, AS
IT WAS IN SOME PLACES, NO POWER
OUTAGES TO CONTEND WITH, THANK
GOODNESS.
THERE WAS SOME LIGHTNING THOUGH
AND I ALSO HEARD SOME THUNDER.
THIS MORNING, A LOT OF WARM,
STICKY AIR IN THIS AREA AND A
LOT OF WATER.
POOR VISIBILITY AS WELL FOR
THOSE WHO WERE DRIVING, AND
WE'RE TOLD THAT THE FLOOD WATCH
WILL SOON BE LIFTED HERE IN
BRISTOL COUNTY AND IT DOES LOOK
THAT WAY, IT'S RAINING, BUT WE
SEE NO SUBSTANTIAL STREET
