Almost 6" of rain in Iowa City, Ia last night. Probably the same storms that then headed to Chicago.
I've had about 2.5" here in Waterloo. I put in a sump pump in a 4ft pit, 3 years ago after my drain backed up in my basement after a torrential down pour (5" in an hour). Best thing I ever done. They cemented off the drain that was the problem and put the pump in the corner of the basement and the thing has ran like twice since they put it in. Once was last night. It is electric with a battery backup. Best money I ever spent.
