WARR ACRES, Okla. – Rapid rainfall rates of an inch an hour fell across the west metro this morning.
That caused street flooding at Hammond Ave., a notorious area of poor drainage in Warr Acres.
One driver stalled their vehicle out in the high water that was up to the windows at one point.
A reminder to “turn around, don’t drown” as flood waters can and will disable your vehicle.
The Warr Acres Fire Department sent a crew out to check on the driver, a situation that causes emergency responders to route resources to calls that are avoidable.
