ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WHEC) Saturday s heavy downpours have creeks roaring and local parks flooding.
The open field at Ellison Park turned into swampy wetlands.
The park is at the bottom of a big hill off Blossom Road which makes it prone to flooding.
The water level in the middle of the park near some of the lodges and shelters was creeping close to the walkway, even crossing over the path at points. Parts of the park are blocked off for that reason.
In another field at the park, there are at least six inches of water in the middle of a giant puddle. A lot of the Ellison Park water will drain into Irondequoit Creek which winds through the park.
