I know Burton and Flint got NAILED by the rain! I went threw a few spots on the roads out there today that the water on the road was splashing my floor boards on the burban when I drove threw. A lot of fully flooded yards and side streets also.

The draw back to living across from a lake, water everywhere. About a three weeks ago my basement had about 6in in it. It was coming in faster then my pump was pushing it out, I ended of firing another pump up. The picture was about a week before. It came up another 10ft towards the house. I had ducks swimming in my yard. The 2 markers at the end of my yard are french drains, that DON'T work.
