Dozen Businesses Around Eureka, Missouri Area Flooded

Flash flooding Monday morning caused damage to homes and businesses around the area. About a dozen business around the Eureka area have flooded.

An official with the Eureka Fire Department, told News 4 he has been here since 1997 and has never seen anything like this.

He told News 4 they didn’t have any issues with storm drains and the river and creek were not previously flooded.

The official said things were made worse during the morning hours because of the sheer volume of rain and the fact that it was not expected.
