Western Avenue near Stuyvesant Plaza was flooded by several feet of water on Wednesday.
A number of cars tried to get though high flood waters on Route 20 in Guilderland, but they were no match for the amount of rain mother nature poured over the area.
CBS 6 was on the scene when at least two cars were stuck in the flood on Western Ave near Stuyvesant Plaza. A driver is then seen carrying a child from the car and through the flood waters.
