EVERETT, Mass. — A drenching rainstorm turned roads across Massachusetts into rivers overnight, submerging vehicles in the process.
Along Vale Street on the Chelsea-Everett line, a Boston 25 photographer spotted floodwaters rising close to the hoods of some stranded vehicles.
The flooding, likely due to clogged drains in the area of a construction site, isn’t far from Chelsea High School.
