What street(s) in Old Mill? I'm right next door in Plantation Creek. Are houses getting water in them?

Dutchtown Villa subdivision has water in its neighborhood. The houses were built 36 inches above the road so none are flooded yet. But the road has a solid 5 inches of water and rising


Any update on this area? It would greatly be appreciated. TIA


Water steadied out. No homes flooded but it is inches from getting into the last two homes on highland st and Dutchtown villa dr.

My son and I helped bring a few truckloads of sandbags for them. It's looking like they won't flood unless we get hit with heavier rains later today

The street is 12-20" deep in spots

The home on the left is closest to being flooded out of the two on dtown villa. The other one is pretty dry

Highland st seems to have 4 homes threatened by water. One may have a low level of water intrusion by this point

Man my blood pressure is probably 200/150 right now. That retaining pond on Plantation Creek Drive is also filled to the brim. Don't know if we can make another heavy round of rain.

I'm in Highland Dr. a few houses above the interconnecting street with Villa. I had no idea Villa had that much water on it back there. I haven't even driven around here
