SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. — Parts of Seminole Boulevard are completely flooded out and officials say they expect Lake Monroe, which just down the road, to see rising water levels as more water from elsewhere flows in.
Sandbag locations are back open in the county as areas along the St. Johns River are expected to see rising levels. Other areas, such as off of Little Wekiva Road, saw devastating flooding as a neighborhood went underwater.
Officials, as well as the National Guard, are expecting to see more flooding and damage across the county.
"The unique thing about this is we have seen flash flooding. The flash flooding is done," Alan Harris, Emergency Manager of Seminole County, said. "So, the flash flooding is not going to occur and anything for the next week we're not going to see (it). Now we're going to see the slow rise and we're starting to see that."
The National Guard has upped the number of high flood water vehicles available to Seminole County from 3 p.m. - 5 p.m.
