So 100 yrs ago, before asphalt and cement roads existed, what caused the flooding then?
Also, do you really think the soils under roads stays completely dry and doesn't absorb surrounding water?
Did any open fields flood?
YOU CANNOT EVER STOP FLOODING ANYWHERE IF THEY HAVE RECORD RAINFALL IN A NON STOP SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME, PERIOD!
this may be the dumbest post I have read on here ever.
Of course developments affect drainage. he isn't saying its the root cause, but it doesn't help

I know this. You know, sometimes it's affected for the better.
Subdivision drainage was NOT even remotely part of the flooding equation associated with the amounts of rain we received.
Flash flooding places? Sure
But places still underwater a week later should tell you all you need to know about there being just too much water, in a short time, to be removed by our natural waterways.
