Event narrativeevent_narrativeRecord heavy rain fell over most of Douglas county from Friday May 4th through late Sunday night May 6th. Eppley airfield measured 7.46 inches while 4.39 inches was recorded at the NWS office in Valley. The heavy rain caused widespread ponding of water throughout Douglas county and caused some sewers to backup across the Omaha area. Most of the streets that were flooded because of the backed up sewers were in the older eastern sections of the city. Many basements were also flooded throughout town. In addition, 100 vehicles were flooded at the Eppley Airport north long-term parking lot due to backed up storm drains.
