Just started pouring rain here--again! Everything is soaked already!
Haven't even set foot in garden today...

This deluge just came on in a matter of minutes--and, about 15 minutes later--it was all gone.
It is hard to imagine the zillions of gallons of water that just came down.

Here-s the minute to minute snapshots---enjoy! Gita

1--How to tell your gutter is clogged?
2--Water hitting ground....
3--Walked outside for a better view....standing on my patio looking at the BIG puddle...
4--Near the entrance pad to my shed...a new lake forming....
5--The "river" that always forms as all the water from the houses to the left
comes spilling into the storm drain behind my shed. NOT my property any more...

All I could think of how many rain barrels (those that have them) would be filled???
I would think--one very 2 minutes at this rate.
