Dorchester hit hard by flooding

As the torrential rains pour down, Columbia Road has flooded at Hamilton (where the train tracks cross) and in the area of Devon Street.

The flooding there sent motorists down Quincy Street, where they promptly had to stop near Ceylon Street, because of flooding under the train tracks there. One motorist climbed out of his car and was standing on the roof of his car due to floodwaters that came about halfway up his car.
