ATLANTA — Roads that were shut down have been reopened across Atlanta after a heavy rain caused flash flooding.
There were several scenes of flash flooding overtaking roads in Atlanta Wednesday, with drivers stuck on the interstates and other roads during rush hour traffic.
A car could be seen stalled with the driver on top of the vehicle on I-75/I-85 northbound at Baker Street. Another person walked through the water, put them on their back and walked them to the grass.

Emergency officials responded and helped clear storm drains. That road has since been reopened.
A flash flood warning has been issued in the area until 11:15 p.m.
There are also reports of flooding hazards at North Avenue and Dallas St. NE, Old 4th Ward Park, and Glenwood Ave. SE and Flat Shoals Ave. SE.
A call for rescue was received along the 200 block of North Ave. NE. It appeared to be a Waymo self-driving car that had been stuck in water.
