Our overflow is a 3/4" pipe and it's been running full stream for hours, another 4 inches of rain and we won't need the pipe.

All Villages homes should have automatic rain sensors built into every home to stop watering grass when it rains. But as for The Villages streets and golf courses … they’ll water before and after the rain as they attempt to redistribute water around into non flood zones. Very Smart 🤙
