The Southwest Side and several southwest suburbs were hit the hardest by flash flooding.

Last week, Chicago residents were asked to report any flooding in a survey that has now since expired.

The Chicago Office of Emergency Management and Communications advises residents who experienced flooding between July 25 and 28 to contact 311, use the CHI 311 app, or visit 311.Chicago.gov for assistance.

To further gather information, OEMC is collaborating with the Illinois Management Agency to collect data through a Residential Self-Assessment Survey.

This additional data will aid in determining if the city, alongside the Cook County Department of Emergency Management and Regional Security (CCEMRS) and IEMA, can explore other options for providing additional support to the affected residents.

The deadline to submit the survey was Sunday, Aug. 3.
