Yes, water water everywhere. In 24 hours Hurricane Ian dumped ~13" of rain on this area. All the usual avenues of drainage are full, ditches, swales, wetlands and connected lakes. Roadsides and yards are flooded. During the storm water was over the local roads. The Florida Turnpike continues to have an area in Osceola County partially underwater. Locally the ground is saturated. This situation won't last long as cooler, dryer, sunny days are forecast for at least the next week.
