"Does preventing excess flood water to escape the system have adverse consequences? -Where does that excess water and pressure go if it can't exit the storm drain... plumbing fixtures upstream of the sewer perhaps?

I think that the gradient perforation pattern of the storm drain is nicely resolved. "on: Design Concept for a Self-Sealing Storm Drain
