Motorists should attempt to use primary roads on their commutes home as many secondary roads are susceptible to flooding. Many secondary roadways remain impassable and the Loudoun Sheriff’s Office reminds motorists that if you find yourself driving in potential flash flood conditions, never drive through standing water on a roadway. Water may be much deeper than you think causing your car to stall or even get stuck in hidden debris.
