Intense Flooding Causes Parked Cars To Be Completely Submerged At Dallas Airport

Intense Flooding Causes Parked Cars To Be Completely Submerged At Dallas Airport

Storms in Texas have caused flooding so widespread and deep that on Wednesday, a number of cars at the Dallas Love Field airport were documented being almost completely under water.


3.55 feet of water was pumped out of the lower level parking garage of Dallas Love Field, leading to some crazy footage of just how badly the drainage problems and 3 inches of rain overnight affected airport patrons and workers.




Field Love, which is located in Northwest Dallas, sees flooding problems every time it rains.

Elizabeth Blackstock, a contributor for Jalopnik, writes "as a former Texas resident, yes, flooding happens literally every time it rains for longer than an hour. My own parking garage of my apartment complex would flood in a similar way to Love Field (just not quite as terrible), and water tends to pool up wherever it possibly can. It well and truly sucks."





The city of Carrollton, a suburb of Dallas, tweeted that fire rescue and the police department were "working multiple scenes of vehicles stranded in high water at city intersections."






Hail was also reported slightly further north.

In addition to major flooding, the area saw power outages and continues to be on severe weather alert.






What a crazy story. Stay safe, Dallas!

Trump Just Compared His Idea To Put ICE Agents In Airports To The Invention Of The Paper Clip—And, What?

Speaking to reporters about whose idea it was to deploy ICE agents to U.S. airports amid a partial government shutdown that has caused exceptionally long delays at TSA lines nationwide, President Donald Trump weirded people out when he compared the decision to the invention of the paper clip.

Samuel B. Fay patented the first bent-wire paper clip in 1867—about 159 years ago. The now-familiar “Gem” paper clip design commonly sold in office supply stores appeared around 1892, roughly 134 years ago, and was never patented in the United States.

A Trump Tweet From 2016 Is Going Viral For Perfectly Predicting What's Happening Right Now

There's always a tweet, and now one of President Donald Trump's old tweets has resurfaced and gone viral as Trump announced he would deploy ICE agents to U.S. airports amid a partial government shutdown that has caused exceptionally long delays at TSA lines nationwide.

ICE agents are still getting paid during the shutdown, unlike TSA agents, who are currently working unpaid and struggling amid the affordability crisis. News outlets have confirmed ICE agents have been deployed in airports that serve Democratic strongholds, particularly John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia Airports (New York), O'Hare International Airport (Chicago), and others.
