Flooding map and other flooding in 2011

The flooding on 7/24/2010 was the last really large flood.  A few days after that on 8/3/2010, we got another big rain and we got some rain water seepage as well.  In 2011, we had a large rainfall on 5/29/2011 and we had some flooding down the block, but not as much as 2010.  And for some reason, we did not get any water in the basement that time.

Here is an arial view of how the water flows on the south side of Washington Blvd.  Besides the water running down the street, quite a large quantity of water is also running through the backyards before ending up in the street.


The picture below is the river coming out from the backyards before it runs out on to Elizabeth.  A very similar thing happens as the water comes onto green valley.
