A flash flood is caused when water rises rapidly in low-lying areas. The National Weather Service advises pedestrians and drives to “turn around, don’t drown” — people often underestimate the water’s depth and current.
O’Fallon, Mo., and St. Paul were hardest hit by flash flooding Tuesday.

Editor’s note: Some users have deleted their tweets or have since made their accounts private. Those tweets remain embedded here, but appear gray.
A lot of people were angry that KSDK covered tornado watches Saturday afternoon, instead of airing the Belmont Stakes pre-show. Note that each of these tweets was sent at least 30 minutes before the Belmont Stakes race started — the race aired without interruption. Here’s a sample of what they had to say. Warning: There’s a lot adult language.
#ksdk st louis gets tornadoes every week. A triple crown race never. Stop the weather madness!

@ksdknews no one cares about your thirst for airtime. No one watches during your normal hours, hence why you intrude on the Belmont. #Losers

Hate to break it you @CindyPreszler, but residents of southwest Illinois have radios. @ksdknews isn't their sole source of weather info.

@ksdknews your audience can read weather maps, they do not need to hear your voices. Keep the split screen & let us listen to the Belmont!
— Courtney Maltagliati (@CMaltagliati92) June 7, 2014
@ksdknews, You HAVE to have this continuous coverage?? Give me a break. #overdoing it #ksdk
