Flooding in Connecticut

Flooding caused problems in parts of the state on Friday afternoon as 2.5 inches of rain fell quickly. 

Officials from the Milford Fire Department said they had to rescue about 25 people from flooding and probably took more than 100 calls for basement flooding, 

The two biggest issues were flooding at the Westfield Connecticut Post in Milford, which closed for about half an hour, and St. Anne's Church, which is dealing with oil from a neighboring property leaking into the church.

The Stratford Fire Department responded to more than 35 incidents, many of which included rescuing people from stranded cars. Ten cars were stuck in high water in just one of those incidences, according to the Stratford Fire Department.
