South Florida floods can ruin your parked car. Here's who pays

Choosing the perfect parking spot in South Florida is usually all about shade, until the floodwaters come. Then, it matters very much where you left your car. Whether it’s a heavy rainstorm or a high king tide — like the one expected early this week — excess water in low-lying South Florida often finds its way to a parking lot or garage. And woe to the cars left behind in drier times. Every serious flood, tow truck operators haul dozens of cars from waterlogged streets, lots and garages. It doesn’t take much water to immobilize a car, just six inches can stall an engine. A foot of water can leave a vehicle floating. But even if the spot was dry when you parked, then swamped when you returned, the bill for fixing a flooded car almost always lands with the owner of the vehicle. Aaron Alamary, president of parking management company TruPark USA, manages thousands of parking spaces between Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach. And some of them flood, he said. And yet, drivers are still the ones footing the bill, as explained in the fine print on the tickets they get from the machine or signage in the garage.

BUILD THAT WALL! Outside Levin Worth Boca Raton (Woodfield) Traffic Woes To Continue

Woodfield Country Club BUILDS THAT WALL!! BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2026 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — We don’t know who will clean the homes or cut the grass in Levin Worth — we mean Woodfield Country Club — as they “Build That Wall,” but construction on the eight foot tall eyesore will continue to mess with eastbound traffic on Clint Moore Road this week between the Turnpike and Jog Road. As we first reported last week, angry motorists and Woodfield homeowners are now calling the multi-month project “Levin Worth,” a Boca-esque spelling of the Leavenworth prison which also has ugly, high walls. You’ll recall that it’s so controversial that a lawyer from Becker Poliakoff — Jonathan Zim — threatened us over our reporting. While we are preparing to report him to the Florida Bar, we’ll focus now on all of the traffic problems expected in Palm Beach County this week. We thank FDOT and Palm Beach County for the updates: Major FDOT Highway Projects Interstate 95 The Boynton Beach Boulevard interchange rebuild — $64 million, finishing in early 2029 — is still the big one. Up to four lanes of I-95 can disappear overnight. I-95 at Boynton Beach Boulevard

Report: Miami-Dade train project gets state funding, but mayor not sold

Florida has reinstated $200 million for a proposed public commuter train line connecting downtown Miami to Aventura, but the fate of the project remains unclear. Why it matters: Building out the Northeast Corridor line — with planned stops in Wynwood, Little Haiti and North Miami — would be a big win for public transit in Miami-Dade County. The proposed commuter line — which aims to eventually connect to Broward and Palm Beach counties — would give South Floridians an eastern alternative to the Tri-Rail. Driving the news: The Florida Department of Transportation added back the funding after it was removed from the state budget last year, WLRN reports. The $927 million project, also known as the Coastal Link, would run on existing railroad lines used by Brightline and owned by the Florida East Coast Railway. Brightline plans to build the commuter line, with Miami-Dade expected to contribute about $338 million and the federal government $389 million, per WLRN. Miami-Dade would also pay operating costs and track-access fees, per the Miami Herald . Yes, but: Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava is not yet sold that the Brightline proposal is the best deal for taxpayers, the Herald reports. A consultant hired by
