CBS 2's Chris Tye explored where the storms hit, the calls for service, and why certain neighborhoods get hit the hardest most often.
In Rogers Park, everyone who lives 1700 block of West Columbia Avenue – between Ravenswood and Hermitage avenues – ended up with water in their basements.
Some say they have felt this same pinch four or five times in the last 10 years – and they say it's getting old, wet, and tired quickly.Of course, anything bubbling over like a fountain in one's home – short of an actual fountain – is unwelcome. But the last place anyone would hope for such a thing to happen is the toilet.
CBS 2 tracked the parts of the city where the rain fell hardest and fastest. They appear in the darker colors in the map below.Those are also exactly the neighborhoods where calls to 311 for water in basements and water on the road — reflected in blue dots on this second map — came in most frequently. From Sunday to Monday morning, there were more than 900 calls from six Chicago community areas on the North and Northwest sides alone.
