If you're experiencing flooding in your basement:
1. Use a shop vac *without the filter* to vacuum your carpets/standing water
2. Peel back your carpets/flooring, if possible
3. Use fans to dry the space - you can buy or rent "restoration fans" from Depot

If your window wells are full/flooding, use buckets or a submersible pump to clear them out

Your homeowner's insurance may or may not cover basement flooding, depending on your policy. Reach out to your agent or company to determine your coverage!
