It may also be the less dramatic cases - for example, I think there was quite a reasonable amount of flooding from the GU in Warwick in Easter 1998 (?) when the systems couldn't cope with what was coming downhill in the Hatton area. Often bits like that have minor drains / feeders which come in and assume the weirs will take away the excess: they're now dealing with more unpredictable rain than when they were built and have more building round them.
