What's with this obsession about rainfall? Been here for over 20 years (Village of Bonnybrook) and never had any flooding problem.

No obsession here . We’re on our third home since 2005 and no flooding issues at any.

I just think folks like to compare the amount and then jibber jabber over the results ! :):):)

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.

A number of residents are on vacation (some for a couple months) and their rain sensors probably no longer work. Those darn rain sensors are rather “finicky”.
