Storm drains across the Anchorage Bowl were overwhelmed early Wednesday morning by heavy rain falling in the area.
Flooding wasin six different locations across the city in the early morning hours of Wednesday. One of the hardest hit areas was a downtown apartment complex on the corner of 12th Avenue and Cordova Street where the entire lower level was left underwater.
“There was somebody down in this unit here — in unit #15 — who the water was up to her countertops and above her waist,” Parsons said. “She had trouble getting out of her apartment.” Parsons said the other two units located on the lower level are unoccupied. Another resident of a lower-level apartment in the complex adjacent to the severely flooded complex said her apartment flooded as well, but not nearly as badly.
