Torrential Rainfall Causes Chaos in Philly




Record Rainfall of over 7 inches fell over certain areas of Philadelphia.  This is the second month of record breaking rain.  Motorists on a major route (The Schuylkill Expressway) were trapped in a section of expressway where they were faced with up to 3 feet of water and nowhere else to go.  Several drivers were not able to successfully cross the rising water and ended up stalled out.

The Philadelphia Airport had a major power outage do to flood waters causing major delays.
