NBC News - Fort Lauderdale received 12.83 inches of rain by late yesterday. Miami got 9.82 inches and Hollywood a little more than 10 inches. Pompano Beach got 9.62 inches, and Fort Myers received just more than 8 inches. Here’s what else to know.
CNN -Millions are under flood watches in Florida as repeated bouts of torrential rain deluge the state. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has declared an emergency for Broward, Collier, Lee, Miami-Dade and Sarasota counties after dangerous flooding on Wednesday disrupted interstates, roadways, schools and airports. Fort Lauderdale, where the mayor also declared a local state of emergency, received more than a month's worth of rain Wednesday with 9.58 inches. Local officials have warned against driving through murky floodwaters and are urging storm-weary South Floridians to stay home. Notably, many South Florida residents had just finished repairing their homes after catastrophic flooding in April 2023, only to find water lapping at their doorsteps this week.

Thank Ron DeSantis for flooding his state. he refuses to do anything to reducer emissions and bans discussion. he is tyrying to kill his constituents and everyone else.
Florida should get no relief funds until they start to get rid of fossil fuels.
