Sep 15, 1997
Heavy rain on this morning coupled with road construction caused flooding to occur in several homes in Hurricane. Water collected on SR-59 then ran into several homes in the adjacent Brentwood and Lava Bluffs subdivisions due to the poor drainage. The spotter in Hurricane measured 0.65" of rain during that time.
