Rising flood waters from heavy rains stranded this Honda Accord on Sunday afternoon in downtown Inverness. Police officers had to close a stretch of State Road 44 near Apopka Avenue after several drivers found the water deeper than they had suspected. "You couldn't really tell the depth of the water," said David Bare of Wildwood, a passenger in the Honda. "It just started pulling the car off the road to the right. It looked like something out of a movie."
