A much different scene is unfolding today across the Hudson Valley and Connecticut after Sunday’s heavy rain and flooding left roads underwater, stranded drivers needing rescue and neighborhoods dealing with high water.

Storm Wrangler 12 visited several of the hardest-hit areas Monday to see how recovery efforts are progressing.

In Rye, roads that were flooded during the storm had largely cleared, although some potholes remained filled with water.

In Westport, large puddles could still be seen along West Parish Road and Center Street. The area was among the hardest hit during the storm, with 13 people rescued from vehicles after becoming trapped in floodwaters.

In Fairfield, attention is turning to emergency response efforts during the storm.

Firefighters are questioning why more emergency alerts were not sent to residents as flooding worsened Sunday, saying additional warnings could have helped people stay informed and safe.

Officials continue to urge motorists to use caution in areas that may still have standing water or storm-related damage.
