Wow, I love storms, but yesterday cut the cake.
In twenty minutes friends of ours called us and told us they can't actually, physically get out of their door without a wall of water.
So, as soon as the rain let up, we got our buckets and lots of towels and went to help them out.
Turns out, they weren't exaggerating.
The water was up to the second step of the stairs to their basement suite.
Since the stairs go into the ground, it's surrounded by a cement box with no top...
The drain that stops that from happening, turns out it doesn't actually work...
So we bucketed water for two hours to get them and their neighbors on the other side out.

Anyone ever had to bucket someone/their basement out before?
That water is bloody COLD.
