Clark Atlanta University officials said they are relocating some students into temporary housing Thursday after thunderstorms caused flooding to some of its residences.

Heavy storms across the city left students of the Atlanta University Center (AUC) in disarray. Storms flooded several roads alongside Morehouse College and Clark Atlanta University, and multiple vehicles were submerged as a result.

As of Friday morning, Morehouse College reported some water damage but hasn’t had to close buildings or reschedule classes. At nearby Morris Brown College, President Kevin James similarly reported a lot of rain but no damage or flooding that impacted operations.
