“We came down this morning and the roads were closed,” he said Wednesday afternoon. “My wife and Chloe walk with me here nearly every day. This has never happened before. This is very interesting.”

The Maberry family lives in a nearby neighborhood. He said the family was fortunate to not have water in the house, but water was in his neighborhood and some neighbors had problems with it.

“Our street floods quite a bit but our house is usually OK,” he said. “I have never seen this park so flooded.”

Nick praised the Bethalto Public Works Department for keeping track of the area because some motorists tried to drive through streets containing water near the park.

“The Public Works talked to them and told them they shouldn’t be doing that,” he said. “You have to be smart about not driving in water when it covers the road."
