Rainfall across Chicago area reaches more than 6 inches in some places - CBS News

CHICAGO (CBS) -- Heavy rains pummeled much of the Chicago area Sunday with more rain falling than sewers could hold in some areas of the city. 

Water spouted geyser-like into the sky in Bucktown and Albany Park as sewers were overwhelmed.  Some cars were left flooded or damaged.

In one case near Irving Park and Kolmar, a good Samaritan waded through high water to reach a woman who was stranded in her car. The man pulled her out through a window and got her to higher ground. She was not hurt. 

The heavy rain fell in a short period of time as well with some areas reporting 2.6 to 3.5 inches in as little as an hour.
