A Redwood City home was flooded with sewage water after a street drain got clogged with debris during a heavy storm that hit the Bay Area on Tuesday.

"It's a little gross to think my neighbors' poop is in my house," said Adrienne Herro, who was making school lunches for her children when she noticed the dirty water creeping into her home.

"It was about two inches of water, and it just kept rising," she said.

Herro was not referring to rain water. Sewage water, human waste and even toilet paper flooded her home.

Herro said the flooding has happened before when the drain near the streets gets clogged with debris. City crews spent the morning clearing the pipe.

Redwood City sanitation crews will cover the cost of cleaning the mess. The city's public works department said the pipe in the neighborhood is likely more than 50 years old and will soon replace the damaged section.
