Urban floods, which are most often caused by intensive rainfall and the fast formation of surface runoff, cause great damage to the urban population and infrastructure. Due to the stochastic (random) nature of precipitation, it is not entirely possible to achieve reliable operation of sewer systems. We can only try to design and operate them in the most reliable way. Urbanization and changes in climatic conditions are one of the main factors for increasing the frequency of flash and rain floods in urban conditions...
