Hurricane Milton

The South Florida Water Management District (District) operates the regional water management system. The District continues to actively monitor, manage and adjust our primary water management system Post-Hurricane Milton. Much of the Central and Southern Florida region has an interconnected water management system, and flood control is a shared responsibility between county/city governments, local drainage districts, communities (including Homeowner Associations or HOAs), and the District. It is normal to see lakes temporarily rise and water flowing through streets to drains.
