Not in my part of time (half of my town is right on the water, and the other is not), but in my old house in Queens, our basement flooded all the time.

When it rains heavy, the drain outside my house gets blocked and most of the path gets flooded.
Here's some badass flooding from Wallington (near where my mum works) in Surrey, South England, from last year's so-called summer...

Oh dang! That's crazy!
I really wish the waters would receed but I don't think they will. I just want to go to my doctors appointment, and... well at this point since I can't go anywhere I -want- to go places. xD
.. It's suppose to start raining again soon.
The large hill that I and a large portion of my town live on was virtually turned into an island last November. It sucked, but at least we had power.
The windstorm that hit a month later, however, left everything pretty much out for a week.
It's never really flooded much around where I live, but before my parents dug up the entire back garden and replaced it with gravel, it used to flood all the time whenever it rained.

I watched the news yesterday, heard some dam broke in Wisconsin and I saw (on TV) a gray roofed house being washed away. It's amazing how nature gets payback in a very, very disturbing way.
Yeah that dam like broke the day of the bad rains.
There's another dam that got a bog caught in it and by the time the people got it out the dam was already cracking.
They're just waiting for it to break, and people down the river are being told to either get their stuff and get out, or get out when they sound the tornado sirens because they're going to sound the tornado sirens when the dam breaks.
