Default Flood control in The Villages
I have always heard and read about how The Villages has a great flood control system where, in the event of a hurricane, they can flood the golf courses and save the houses.

Does anyone know the specifics on this? How much rain can they handle before they are overwhelmed? Would they have been able to handle the 18-24 inches that were forecast? Or would many homes have been flooded?
