ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Several towns in the Rochester area are cleaning up after flash flooding on Tuesday led to stranded cars, over 100 emergency calls, roads underwater, and damaged basements. Here’s the latest on the aftermath of the flooding:
Clover Street in Pittsford closed
Part of Clover Street in Pittsford is closed in both directions because wires are down after the heavy rainfall. It’s closed between Jefferson and French roads as utility crews work. Drivers should find an alternate route.
Warning about carbon monoxide
The Henrietta Fire District, which had to rescue several people on Tuesday, has some warnings for communities as they clean up from the damage. Henrietta was among the most impacted towns.
If you need to run a gas pump to get water out of your basement, don’t put it next to a window. Officials tell us they responded to several calls where dangerous carbon monoxide-filled homes.
Henrietta fire crews say that, while the high water can seem fun, it can be filled with bacteria and often sewage. Also, mold can develop quickly on wet belongings after flooding.
For families with flooded basements or other damage, take pictures and contact your insurance company as soon as you can.
