Anyone planning on driving through the Saugus area should leave a little early and plan alternate routes as there are many roads affected by flooding. Some roads have been completely closed by the towns or cities responsible for them; others are effectively closed to ordinary cars with up to a foot and a half of water being recorded pooled up in some of the open streets. Drive carefully, and be safe.
Many streets are flooded, and quite a few are outright closed. It's a good day to telecommute if you have the option (and it's a good time to broach the subject with your employer if you currently don't).
