Early Sunday storms rocked Hall County, leaving heavy flooding, collapsed roads and other damage in its wake. The disaster left residents reeling, but it also prompted county and Flowery Branch officials to declare a state of emergency for South Hall and Hall school administrators to consider morning bus routes. And even as residents tried to recover, they braced for more rain that would come later in the day and that was forecast for overnight Monday.
