DC-area roads hit hard by closures after flooding

Much of the Washington region is still reeling from Monday’s historic downpours, which resulted in the sixth wettest July day ever at Reagan National Airport.

Those who have to drive through the area will be dealing with the effects for days to come. And there are a number of roads that remain closed even as D.C. tries to dry off.

“Wherever there were issues Monday, approach those areas with caution,” WTOP Traffic Reporter Jack Taylor said.
