I suppose the acid test on that would be these past few days.

Anyone heard the same thing?

Sounds like another Village Myth.

Our Camelia only has gutters around the front entry.
The sandy soil doesn't help the the downpours down the sides of the house and where the rain runs off the roof, especially bothersome outside the bedroom window.

We're having gutters installed next Wednesday.
