People in Dover still cut off by flooded roads a week after Milton

10 Tampa Bay

It has now been one week since Hurricane Milton and some are still without power and trapped because of flooding.

10 Tampa Bay toured conditions in Durant and Dover in eastern Hillsborough County and saw homes still cut off by a flooded retention pond.

People in about a half dozen homes in the Whitlock subdivision have been stuck with roads covered by several feet of water, some here still don’t have power. Others won’t have a place to live even when the water goes away.

Glenda Thurow and her husband haven’t left their house in a week when floodwaters boxed them in like a moat.

“I'm 88 and we feel very isolated,” she said. “I'm to the breaking point. I would like to be able to get in my car and go someplace, even just for a cup of coffee.”

Robert Perez lives up the street and says recent development in one of the fastestgrowing parts of Tampa Bay has made runoff worse.
