Event narrative (NOAA)
Heavy rain caused minor flooding in Indian Rocks Beach. A 71 year old man died after suffering a heart attack while standing in less than a foot of water in his front yard and could not remove himself from the water. The medical examiner determined that the cause of death was drowning, with heart disease as a contributing factor.
