The overnight storm left drivers dodging high water and some homeowners cleaning up damage.
Barricades put in place near areas of high water did not discourage some people from driving around them. San Antonio firefighters conducted nearly two dozen water rescues in less than four hours.– Strong winds and heavy rain that swept through the region overnight created troubling conditions for people when they woke up Friday morning.
In one area on the Far West Side outside Loop 1604 near Culebra Road, the damage was apparent in the many broken branches that littered neighborhood streets.A few homes were left missing huge sections of wooden fences.A tree toppled over toward the parked vehicle, making it look from a distance that it had caused major damage.
However, upon closer inspection, it became clear that the tree landed in such a way that it left the Ford Bronco with barely a scratch.Other drivers, meanwhile, lost their cars to rushing water.
