A Thousand Year Flood; More Than 15 Inches of Rain in Parts of Dallas/Fort Worth; at Least 1 Dead
Dallas County confirmed the first fatality from the record breaking flooding that impacted the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex on Monday, with some parts of the city picking up more than 15 inches of rain.
The Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex was overtaken by a slow-moving thunderstorm late Sunday night into Monday, resulting in a rain event that established the area’s highest 24-hour precipitation total in nearly 90 years, leaving one dead and prompting a barrage of flash flooding and subsequent water rescues.
Throughout the day on Monday, the city was all but brought to a standstill as officials urged motorists to stay off the roads and carried out rescues of those whose vehicles were caught in the floodwaters. Monday evening, Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins reported that a 60-year-old woman was killed when her vehicle was swept away in the flooding. Meanwhile, tens of thousands were without power for a time on Monday and air travel at local airports was disrupted.
