Recently, heavy rains caused numerous reports of flooded intersections and stalled cars on area roads and flooded basements and storm drains. Portland emergency crews scrambled to respond to the high water concerns and cautioned drivers not to attempt to drive through intersections with standing water. Flood advisories were issued for much of western Oregon by the National Weather Service. Multnomah County, Northwestern Clackamas County, Southeastern Clark County and Southeastern Cowlitz County were under flood advisory. Parts of Linn, Benton, and Polk counties were also under flood advisory as the storm moved through the metro area. The heavy rain is also the culprit of Portland’s combined sewer system to overflow the Willamette River. The system carries sewage and storm water runoff in the same pipes. During heavy rainstorms, the storm water can cause the system to overflow into the river. The public was advised to avoid contact with the river from the Sellwood Bridge downstream to the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia rivers near Kelley Point Park. Additionally, the bureau advised avoiding contact for 48 hours after the sewers stopped overflowing. Not surprisingly, The Portland Bureau of Transportation also received more than 100 calls regarding high water in less than 2 hours.
