Sudden rain causes Flooding in Localized area

A sudden rain about four o'clock yesterday caused roads and bridges to flood east of Blue Hill.  A barricade was set up near a bridge on road Z east of Blue Hill to warn travelers of the danger.  Up to 3.10 inches of rain was reported by the public in that area. 
 Water was also crossing the road at low spots on road Y a couple miles east of Blue Hill.  Further south of Blue Hill in the Rosemont area no rain was reported.  The heavy rain fall seemed to be very spotty.  Overnight a nice gentle soaking rain fell on Blue Hill. The public reporting about half an inch overnight.  Flooding is visible in the area of the golf course.  The rain brought relief from the very hot temperatures we have been experiencing.
