OT: Only 7 inches of rain per year, yet the basement is flooding, after 20 yrs.

It appears to be that the drain to the street has a bad check
valve, to keep runoff from backing up into the basement
shower drain. Kind of like when the storm drains in the
city get flooded, the manhole covers get blown open. The
drain in the shower, somehow runs in reverse during heavy rains.

Last yr. was first time it happened. Called in plumbers, who
said it isn't a plumbing problem. WTH?

The blueprints show a sump pump in the window well,
OUTSIDE of the basement. WTH good is that?
Circuit breaker for sump pump is ON.
