    As a municipal employee, I must put in my 2 cents...
    1) Storm drain, not "Sewer". Two totally different systems.
    2) Once the grates are cleared, if it doesn't drain, it's simply because the storm drain system as a whole is overloaded. Give it time.
    3) Thank You, I now have every storm drain location on your street memorized, as it was repeated 387 times.

      @@saltwaterrook4638 There are small holes, designed to limit the amount of water going into the system. It's like a small dam whereas if you open the flood gate completely, there is a higher net gain than net loss of water. This effectively redirects water in a non issue area at a higher elevation to a more issue prone area at a lower elevation. Just think if everyone did this when their roads that have this same design (water collection via sloping and pooling ditches in the road.) One cannot just expedite this process and play as the hero or genius of the neighborhood. People need to think about WHAT happens to WHO, WHY it happens and HOW, WHEN it happens to YOU.

      This place appears to have a combined sanitary/storm sewer system based on the manhole lid at 7:18 -- when it's a combined system, who cares about the lifting hole in the side allowing a bunch of storm water into the sewer. You won't see that where there are separate sanitary and storm sewers--with those, every effort is made to keep storm water out of the sanitary sewer because it increases the operating costs for the sewage treatment plant, and, in a big storm, could overload it. Combined systems were obsolete by the 1940s, but they remain in areas developed prior to then.

I used to live in Elmhurst, Illinois, also a combined system, and I recall seeing a manhole lid exactly like that one except it had water coming OUT of it--this was after a major storm which flooded much of the city. I sure wouldn't be walking barefoot in any flooded street in any city with a combined sewer system!!!
