Dangerous flooding from a tropical disturbance inundated much of southern Florida, blocking roads, floating vehicles and delaying travelers.
The disorganized storm system was pushing across Florida from the Gulf of Mexico on Wednesday, bringing extended periods of heavy rain across much of the state.
In Fort Lauderdale, the mayor declared a state of emergency late Wednesday afternoon, due to flooded thoroughfares near the city's downtown.
In nearby Hollywood, drivers also encountered rising water across residential streets for much of the afternoon.
Numerous roads were flooded and impassable for vehicles.
On major artery Interstate 95 in Broward County, southbound traffic was being diverted around a flooded section and contractors were on their way to pump the drainage system, the Florida Highway Patrol said in an email.
The interstate wouldn't reopen until after water is drained, the agency said.
The disturbance has not reached cyclone status and was given only a slight chance to form into a tropical system once it emerges into the Atlantic Ocean after crossing Florida, according to the National Hurricane Center.

I am so happy I am out of the hell hole of central Florida. 24 years of hurricanes constantly will put a person in a bad mood. After 2 weeks I can feel my mood lifting higher and higher! Amen

Climate change and rising sea levels will make properties in low lying areas and coastal areas impossible to insure. Banks will be reluctant to give a mortgage for 15 or 30 years because the property may be under water. Selling properties to average buyers will become impossible in the future as banks and mortgage companies stop making loans for these properties. Coastal areas are a high risk for insurance and extreme weather like hurricanes. People will have to self insure and take the risk of loss. Condo associations are losing their insurance and if they find a new higher cost policy they will be passing on the higher costs to association members. Flooded cars from hurricanes fill the salvage lots. Insurance companies will raise rates and pass on the costs and risks to policy holders next year. Coastal properties will be confined to wealthy individuals that can buy properties with cash and self insure for losses from hurricanes or rising sea levels.
