Residents spent much of Saturday cleaning up what they could from the devastating floods.
“I just couldn’t believe my eyes, when I came out and see all of the cars submerged throughout the whole neighborhood. I started videotaping it,” said Dwayne Berry.
Dwayne Berry shared that video with Local 4. It captured the moments his street in the Jefferson Chalmers neighborhood turned into a river instantly. The video also showed the water swallowing his cars that were parked in front of his home.

“I thought it was just little random water, but when I went to the stairs, I couldn’t even get down the stairs,” said Dawnitta Morris.
Dawnitta Morris recorded the video of the water leaking into her basement early Saturday morning. What she thought was just a leak quickly turned the lower level of her home into a swimming pool.
“The water had the hot water tank, the furnace, everything almost covered up. I had numerous things in the basement and I lost all of my stuff down there,” said Morris.
