Birmingham

Birmingham's position in a natural basin surrounded by hills makes it highly susceptible to surface water flooding. Heavy rainfall rapidly runs off the surrounding high ground into the city centre, overwhelming drainage systems. Major flood events in 2005, 2016, and 2024 caused widespread disruption.
