A historic rainfall event unfolded over Southeast Michigan on Monday, August 11, leading to significant flooding and major road closures. This event was caused by a low pressure system moving over the area and with the atmosphere being very moist created the heavy, continuous rains that were seen. The hardest hit areas included Metro Detroit and surrounding communities, along with Flint and the Saginaw Valley areas. Wayne, Southern Oakland and Macomb counties saw the worst of the flooding as 4 to 6 inches of rain fell over a 4 hour period.
