Parts of South Florida recovering after wet, windy weekend


MIAMI – Severe weather over the weekend caused quite a bit of chaos across areas of South Florida.

Whipping winds, lightning, hail and lots of rainfall led to heavy flooding that forced residents to stay inside in areas like Miami Beach and Edgewater.

On Sunday, the last day of Ultra Music Festival, the event was delayed an hour and guests were forced to seek shelter at certain points.

The festival released alerts telling the attendees to stay safe.

The strong thunderstorms also led to a hazardous scene at the University of Miami.

An area was closed to the public after a portion of one of the freshmen dorm patios collapsed.

The housing department sent an email saying a portion of Mahoney Pearson outdoor patio was damaged. It happened Sunday around 6 p.m.

South Florida’s major airports also felt the impact of the poor weather.

At Miami International Airport, there were 38 delays and 28 cancellations while further north at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, a total of 33 delays and 12 cancellations were reported.
