Tuesday's torrential rains flooded at least 526 basements in Chicago Tuesday afternoon, according to CBS 2's coverage. The Tuel family's home in Avondale, pictured above, was among the homes damaged. Tuesday evening the Tuel residence was filled with about three feet of water. Brandon Tuel, 14, told CBS 2 that he was sleeping on a sofa in the room when the water came rushing in. “I woke up and my socks were wet,” he said. “Water started splashing up on the couch and then before I could think of a way to get out, I started floating and I started pushing off the walls to get to the stairs.” Gnarly, bra.
