​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Apr​il 12 Flooding Assistance

Broward County continues to respond to the impacts of record-breaking rainfall and flooding experienced by our community on Wednesday, April 12. Business operations at portions of several County fac​ilities were affected, including the main Governmental Center in downtown Fort Lauderdale. ​​

On the evening of April 12th, over two feet of rain fell in parts of Broward County, as a supercell thunderstorm `parked' near Fort Lauderdale, Pembroke Pines and Hollywood. Approximately a third of Fort Lauderdale's average annual rainfall came down during an eight-hour window, as rainfall of 25.91 inches of rain was reported at the airport, a State record.

Broward County's Resilience Plan partners are working to incorporate the findings from the April 12th event to help refine the County's hydrological model - a tool that will be used to explore the validity of the model results and aid in the identification of adaptation priorities and opportunities. ​​​​
