As Elsa moves closer, angst over flooding is high in some Duval County neighborhoods
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Concern over flooding in some Duval County neighborhoods remained high as Elsa on Tuesday moved closer to Florida’s west coast.
Homeowners along Willow Creek Terrace in Avondale are worried about the amount of rainfall they might experience and when the bulk of the rain might fall. The homes are near Willow Brach Creek close to the opening of the St. Johns River.
“If it’s high tide, much like it was with Irma, we do get water that comes out of the canal, but our street will flood,” said Leslie Dean, an Avondale resident. “Sometimes we’ll have standing water because the drains can’t work if the tide is too high.”

Community members are hosting a mullet dinner fundraiser for Devin Kinsey, a 31-year-old Perry man in need of a heart transplant.
The fundraiser will be held in the Save-a-Lot parking lot from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. this Saturday, Jan. 9.
All contributions will go to Kinsey’s family, who require $5,000 for his transplant when a heart becomes available, as well as financial support during their leave of absence while they stay in Jacksonville to receive medical treatment.
The meal will include two pieces of fried mullet, baked beans, coleslaw, cookies and a bottle of water for $10 per dinner.
