Heavy rain in St. Louis often turns basements into swimming pools, especially in older neighborhoods with combined sewer systems.

It's been a week, and we still have damp spots on the drywall. The key was getting a dehumidifier running immediately and keeping airflow going with fans. Even with that, the wood studs felt wet to the touch for days. It's a real lesson in how St. Louis weather can slow things down.
