Heavy rains flooded the kitchen at Hi Mount Elementary School in Fort Worth Wednesday morning. Officials with the district said flooding in the kitchen is not uncommon when heavy rains swell beyond the capacity of drainage canals along the 4100-block of Birchman Avenue.

An email from a viewer said the water level in the kitchen reached the knees of the workers, but officials with the district said the water flowed in through the floor drains and really only rose to a height of an inch or two. Chopper 5 flew by the school and spotted crews working hard to direct the floodwater out of the building.
