Elevated tides may cause some temporary roadway flooding in low-lying areas in Fort Lauderdale and surrounding communities this week.
Rainfall during high tides could slow down drainage, causing ponding or flooding on roadways.
It’s important to use caution when driving through flooded areas — if you can’t see the road ahead of you through the water, take another route.
Also, avoid creating wakes that push water into homes and businesses.
City of Fort Lauderdale crews are monitoring road conditions.
