Dozens of cars were overcome with water in the latest round of heavy rain that brought widespread flooding to parts of Corpus Christi. The majority of the flooding from the slow-moving storm was along I-37 and also the Crosstown Expressway.
At Brownlee and I-37, the water was up to the roof of one Chrysler. Another eight cars got stuck underneath the Crosstown at Port Avenue. Quite a few drivers sought shelter on higher ground in convenient store parking lots along Port, waiting for the water to go down.
