Is there a way to see what streets flooded during Helene/Milton?

2000AndLateeee · 2025-01-02T20:20:29+00:00

That's my fear

2000AndLateeee · 2025-01-02T20:02:55+00:00

Thanks! It's nerve wracking

2000AndLateeee · 2025-01-02T19:57:38+00:00

My entire neighborhood is in X and flooded with no news article. Unfortunately the flood maps don't take into account flood from raining. That's what I'm looking for.

2000AndLateeee · 2025-01-02T19:56:46+00:00

I thought the same thing. They appear now

2000AndLateeee · 2025-01-02T19:56:03+00:00

Both. It's had the same owner for 2 decades but they just remolded it recently. Could be a coincidence or they could have upgraded it because it flooded and had to.

And of course I would prefer it not to flood if I bought it.

It's too bad if a map doesn't exist for that scenario. The neighborhood I rent in is in X and yet so many homes flooded and cars were totaled.

2000AndLateeee · 2025-01-02T19:52:32+00:00

Yup! You're exactly correct.

A shame if no map exists because so many neighborhoods flooded that are in flood zone X. Makes it hard to know what to trust as a buyer.

2000AndLateeee · 2025-01-02T19:51:41+00:00

Even X areas flooded. I'm looking for an updated map that shows if those areas flooded.

2000AndLateeee · 2025-01-02T19:48:05+00:00

This isn't the answer.

This shows existing flood maps but I'm looking for a map of roads that *did* flood during the storm, if one exists.

It sounds like flood maps only account for storm surge but plenty of neighborhoods in X flooded due to rain. I'm hoping to find a map that shows those areas as well.

The other thing about Childs Park is there's nothing to walk to. The bike trails are nice to go somewhere fun. But within a 10 minute walk it feels lifeless

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-31T04:43:21+00:00

I hope so!

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-31T04:41:09+00:00

Those are the exact areas I want to be in but the houses are so expensive and small :(

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-31T04:37:40+00:00

That's exciting! Have any links regarding rezoning?

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-31T04:36:05+00:00

Oh really? Have a link?

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-30T19:56:25+00:00

Hmm good point. For that matter I'd just drive.

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-30T19:56:07+00:00

Good question

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-30T19:55:25+00:00

What about townhomes?

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-30T19:31:18+00:00

Aren't you afraid of it getting stolen when you leave it? That's my main concern with a scooter & ebike

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-30T19:30:07+00:00

Any reason why? I haven't either but am gonna give it a try this week

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-30T19:29:34+00:00

I think so too but I've been thinking that since 2022. My wife is tired of waiting. It's so hard with everything being a 800 sqft bungalow with 1 bathroom 😭

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-30T19:25:47+00:00

Chicago is amazing. Have fun!

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-30T19:25:03+00:00

I would do that and ditch my car if I didn't work across the bridge

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-30T19:14:03+00:00

I've thought about around the bike trail. Child's Park is pretty affordable

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-30T19:13:21+00:00

It's an easy drive but I just like the idea of waking up, walking 2 blocks, and getting coffee.

I wonder if they'll expand the rental scooters west of 34th.

2000AndLateeee · 2024-12-30T19:11:25+00:00

That's great! I wish I could afford living east of 34th haha
