Mon evening, Jun 15, 2015 - Toledo Blade - Heavy rain brings deep water on city streets

High water on the streets made driving difficult in parts of Toledo during the rush hour today, but it didn't shut down any roads, according to the Toledo Police Department.

"Due to heavy rain, cars are stalled in high water on Bancroft St. west of Detroit Ave. in Toledo."

image - looks like something out of Independence Day.

8:20 p.m. radar snapshot. Rain was moving east.

Naturally, I turn to Family Guy for analysis.
