I think this is more about developing the land that used to soak up rain water. With more droughts and fewer areas for natural absorption it is inevitable.
In Michigan where I live Grand Rapids, Michigan has major flooding with any rain over 3 or 4" of rain. It floods the sewer system and causes overflowing sewage almost once a year. I personally believe that this can be caused by the amount of pavement and parking lots in that area.
There is so much pavement and with a combined sewer system this can only increase the flow rates to above capacity within a short time. So many big cities have this issue because they have not kept any idea of "Green Zones" within their limits. I don't mean having so called "Green Homes."
Environmentally safe homes will obviously have no affect on rainwater's. However, the more natural filtration areas there are the more can be absorbed. With more and more land being developed there is greater run off into rivers and streams which will increase flows and levels temporarily.
Some streams are dammed up in way too many spots for smaller man made lakes. This can increase flow and overflow issues in many areas. With flat land areas being farmed and fewer and fewer fence rows there is nothing to slow or stop erosion allowing flowing water to overtake everything.
Many areas the trenches along the sides of roads are not properly cared for and are so small there is no way they are going to aid in controlling rainwater either. I lived in a farm area where the ditch system to control flooding had not been worked on or trenched in over thirty years. During the winter a major rain system came in and almost flooded my home as the ditch system rain through my land in the middle of a swampy area.
I truly think that man has made a lot of these issue worse for themselves and are now looking for someone or something else to blame. Stop blaming and fix the issues or plan on continuing to suffer each year when the heavy rains come.

Weather control, secrets reviled.
The United nations push for global warming climate control, and the truth about weather control go hand, and hand.
We have been under enormous strain economically, and politically during the Bush administration.
Globa l warming has become a issue to hide the truth from Americans.
We are officially blaming Global warming, a natural process that has continued for millions of years. The strange weather, and natural disasters of recent time, are being blamed on man kinds use of fossil fuels.
One view on the subject world dominance, and weather control has been pressed right under your noses.
A discovery of unheard of proportions are now being manifest by political activists.
The U.N. is pressing new world order by laying the foundation for future laws that supersede all government, past present, and future.
The new law says we can modify the weather, and give nations the ability to manipulate weather patterns all over the globe as they see fit.
One man, professor Searl comments.
This technology has been around for many years..
we are dangerously engaged in research, and development.
We have achieved higher success rates in the field.
Steering huge storms that act like global killers possessed.
This is accomplished with Microwave radiation, directed at the ionosphere, it heats and is then redirected at an area we like to manipulate.
Resent development, and agreements between airlines, and military action are taking this technology to the sky, chemicals designed to react with cloud formation, and high energy microwaves make it possible to steer and manipulate weather, hurricanes, rain, and snow..
Professor Bibert recalls,
The biggest problem arises, and what we are faced with, is when we steer a large hurricane away from its natural path, such as the 2007 hurricane OLGA, we essentially altered its course through the Gulf of Mexico.
it is fact that Wile 33 people died as a result of the storms altered course, the people were unaware of the manipulation of the Strom's path, by rough nations.
Essentially, because of the storms manipulated course by government in the Western world.
Americas are being called Murderers for there roll in changing the storms path, and causing death, and destruction were it would have otherwise been avoided..
The History is there, and the truth about this type of control is well know, they have been developing it for years..
There will always be some degree of uncertainty to prove this in court, without truth, and full disclosure.
what remains is the risks of brain cancer, and hart failures will increase dramatically.
Every time they boost up the power, people could die said one immigrant in Texas, but we will never know the truth, because they have absolute deniability in there corner...
