TORRENTIAL RAIN

Saturday afternoon black clouds started appearing and before you know it we had TORRENTIAL RAIN falling. I am not kidding, within 5 min water was OVERFLOWING the GUTTERS and going up over onto my SIDEWALK and GRASS! My DRIVEWAY in front of the GARAGE was all FLOODED and we had to turn the SUMP PUMPS on right away to avoid FLOODING in the basement! It was a warm RAIN and it was fun to play in. The neighbors came out to take pics and play in it too!
        The rain is really coming down hard! I was worried about my new little tree!
 Pouring rain!! Most of Kaysville only got a little bit of rain, nothing like we did!
 Within  a few minutes the water was over the endge of the sidewalk as you can see!
                                              This is Zach in the middle of the street!
 Our neighbor Jake drove his Jeep in the gutter to splash Anna and her friends!
                           Look how deep! This is in our gutter by the curb 10 min. after it rained!
                                               Zach sweeping the water away from the garage
We are so redneck here...trying to suck the water up with the sump pump...didn't work well!
