The water's not going away here, even though it's stopped raining.

I'm guessing the drains are blocked due to lack of maintenance?

Seems our drain system was nt built for this kind of weather. Leaves from the autumn fall does nt help if they have gone down and block the drains .

Next storm coming in is storm Ellen at a rate of 60mph then Frances then Gerda
