After recent heavy rainfall and tornadic storms in North Texas, two public parks in Flower Mound have been closed due to flooding.
Murrell Park and Twin Coves Park are the affected areas, and they will remain closed until further notice, according to local authorities.
Drivers are advised not to park along Simmons Road and Wichita Trail or attempt to enter the parks.
“Parking like this is dangerous, and we’ve already responded to one accident in the area,” Flower Mound Police warned on social media Saturday. “We’ll have to take enforcement action, and we don’t want to ruin your weekend, so please don’t ruin someone else’s!”
There is no set timeline for reopening the parks, and city officials have not yet estimated the cost of the damage.
