Downpours and storms could dump a lot of rain

(WJW) — Another round of showers and storms will move in this afternoon, especially south and east. Scattered rain and a few thunderstorms will favor areas east of Interstate 77 during the afternoon and evening on Friday. There will still be some dry breaks with temperatures in the mid-70s. TRACKING: Showers and storms. Here's a look at LIVE radar. These are going to be slow-moving downpours and thunderstorms. Any downpours or storms that develop will not be in hurry to move and could dump quite a bit of rain in one spot. This could lead to a flooding threat. Expected rainfall totals: The chance of rain will go down for the start of the weekend. Unfortunately, this weekend may not be completely rain-free. A few rain showers could develop on Sunday as an area of low pressure moves through the Ohio River Valley. Highs on Saturday and Sunday will be in 70s. There will be a drop in the humidity this weekend. The start of next week will not be much warmer. High temperatures next week will generally be about 5 degrees below normal.

Lake Bonny residents brace for new hurricane season after Milton's devastating flooding

The Brief The flood water remained in neighborhoods for nearly a month, destroying homes and lives. Earlier this year, residents created a petition calling for an independent investigation into flooding after Milton. A watershed study is being done to identify possible flooding sources and potential flood relief options. LAKELAND, Fla. - Lake Bonny residents are gearing up for another hurricane season, nearly nine months after Hurricane Milton caused devastating flooding. What they're saying Nicki Aldahonda-Ramirez has made progress rebuilding her home on Honey Tree Lane, but it's still under mid-construction. Follow FOX 13 on YouTube "It is nice to have an actual bathroom that's completed," she said. "All of the walls are new. The floors are new." In the middle of the night during Milton, she, her roommate and their dogs had to escape out the front window after water from Lake Bonny, five feet high, rushed inside. "I have night terrors now that the water's coming in," said Aldahonda-Ramirez. "I scream at night when I'm asleep." The backstory The flooding lasted for weeks until state officials and the Army Corps of Engineers brought in industrial pumps to help move water into Lake Parker. Earlier this year, frustrated residents created a petition calling for an independent investigation into the flooding and how the city, Polk County, and the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFTMD) plan to prevent it from happening again. Homeowners also demanded disclosure of drainage system maintenance records, and long-term mitigation efforts, including the formation of a citizen oversight committee. "We're asking for [the city] to have a more open line of communication, not just with us, but with Polk County and SWFTMD, because everybody has to work collaboratively for this to work," said Aldahonda-Ramirez. Additionally, neighbors are asking the city for a dedicated phone number for them to report when water levels get too high and for city officials to communicate when flooding is expected. The other side In regard to their concerns, city spokesperson, Kevin Cook, declined FOX 13's request for an interview. Big picture view A positive of this nightmare, Aldahonda-Ramirez says, is that her neighbors have become stronger than the storm. "The neighborhood came together. Who has this or that? I have toilets and electricity. We went from not knowing each other just by going past and waving to actually coming together as one," she said. What's next A watershed study is being done to identify possible flooding sources and potential flood relief options. Cook said it's now expected to be completed by August.
