Residents in Hollywood woke up to a long day of cleanup on their hands after Sunday's storm.

Wind, hail and rain all did damage to people’s yards, streets and sidewalks.

The flooding was only made worse by a water main break on North 66 Avenue.

Neighbors said they were without electricity for hours because of the storm and without water because of the main break. 

“We were without power for about four hours," resident Stacey Conaway said. “We had no water pressure.”

Crews were out all night and all morning digging up pipes and patching up the street.

A city worker told NBC6 that the water main has been restored and crews will be back again on Tuesday to run more tests.

Strong Sunday storms brought flooding, hail, power outages and even ground stops across across South Florida.

The stormy Sunday in South Florida brought not only flooding and ground stops, but also hail.

Hollywood residents sent in videos to NBC6, showing hail at their homes as severe weather swept through Broward County.

NBC6 cameras were rolling on the floods at north 66th Avenue and Evans Streets, where city crews responded.

FPL crews were also seen working in Broward late Sunday night, as dozens of homes remained without power.

The wet weather and active storm chances will last through the middle of this week, before we see calmer and quieter weather to end the work week.
