The Dale Turner YMCA experienced some serious flooding on Monday, November 19, 2012 as a result of the heavy downpour.
According to an eyewitness who was there before noon,
"The lower parking lot was flooded with at least 4 inches of water. When I got to the Y (I always park on P2) I could see that there was a problem. Most of the parking spaces were flooded. I managed to find one right in front of the stairs that only had a little water in it and the area by the wall was dry.
"When I came out an hour later, the water was pouring down the elevator shaft and under the door to the stairway. It must have been 4" deep by my car then. The parking spaces in other parts of the garage looked like there was over 6" of water when I went in."
The Y posted a notice,
"We have limited parking as the P2 parking garage is closed due to heavy rain and flooding. In addition, the elevator is out of order also due to flooding in P2. We are working with the city to remedy the situation as quickly as possible. We thank you in advance for your patience and understanding."
