Lake County, FL – Following heavy rain overnight, Lake County officials are urging residents to report any storm-related property or road damage to the Citizens Information Line (CIL) at 352-253-9999. The hotline will remain open until 7 p.m. Monday.
According to Lake County Emergency Management, the CIL can also provide updates on road closures, flooding conditions, and local safety resources. Reports from residents will help county and municipal teams assess community impacts and coordinate recovery efforts.
Officials remind drivers to avoid flooded roadways and to never attempt to drive through standing water, as road conditions may be unstable or hazardous.
For emergencies, residents should call 9-1-1 immediately.
This initiative follows a series of strong storms that brought heavy rainfall to parts of Central Florida, prompting localized flooding in low-lying areas and near drainage zones.
Lake County authorities are continuing to monitor water levels and encourage residents to stay alert for additional updates throughout the day.
