In the past seven days, we've collected nearly 10 inches of rain. In portions of Indiana south of Indianapolis, they got 10 inches last night alone.Flash flooding is quite a problem. Luckily last night we didn't have any severe weather, though the thunder did wake me up at 5:00 a.m.
The last time I remember getting a deluge like this was during my sophomore year of college. I was on campus on Labor Day, and we got several inches of rain in just a few hours. We tried to drive into Broad Ripple to get food, but the water was so high we couldn't get more than a few blocks away from campus.
The storm sewers were overflowing to the point where in the midst of the lake formerly known as Westfield Blvd, mini fountains looked to be spouting vertically out of the water.
We got back to campus, found some soup, then went outside and had a big mud fight.
Ah, college...
