Neighbors in Santa Rosa County's Allentown Community have already taken two hits of severe weather, now, they're bracing for more. Water got dangerously close to homes on Allentown Road after storms last weekend and Tuesday night. We spoke with one neighbor who's been in a race against time. He's been trying to stay ahead of the storms by pumping water off his family's property. He's hoping to save his son's home, "last night we were sure we lost it. We were, we all kind of just broke down a little bit cause we were sure it was over. But, somehow Mother Nature cooperated and the 2 pumps kept it out of the house again, so, yeah, we've been very emotional lately, yeah," said Jeff Luce. Santa Rosa County says you can report flood damage by calling (850) 981-7000.
