Broward County public schools to resume normal operations Monday

NBC 6- Broward County Public Schools will resume normal operations Monday, following days of historic flooding from severe storms.

All school campuses and administrative offices will be open and operate on a normal schedule.

BCPS had remained closed Friday due to flooding, and shut down all school campuses and district offices and cancelled all after-school activities, field trips, events and extracurricular activities.

Preliminary figures from the National Weather Service in Miami showed 25.91 inches of rain fell at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport on Wednesday, shattering the old record of 14.59 inches set in 1979.

Gov. Ron DeSantis declared a state of emergency for Broward County. Fort Lauderdale also declared a state of emergency Thursday morning as well as the City of Dania Beach.
