Southern Fairfield County towns and cities, especially those along the coast, are expected to see some flooding Wednesday afternoon, according to the National Weather Service.
The flood advisory was issued shortly after 5 p.m. citing the possibility of minor flooding in poor drainage areas until 7 p.m.
The areas that are most likely to experience flooding are Bridgeport, New Haven, Norwalk, Meriden, Milford, Wallingford, Shelton, Guilford, New Canaan, Clinton, Durham, Fairfield, Hamden, Stratford and Trumbull.
The weather service said doppler radar showed heavy rain falling around 5 p.m. At that time, around one inch of rain had already fallen, specifically along the Interstate 95 corridor.
“A flood advisory means river or stream flows are elevated, or ponding of water in urban or other areas is occurring or is imminent,” the NWS said.
