Rain, Rain Go Away



After two straight weeks of rain, only limited progress to report. There was a break in the weather today, so the crew was back working on the roof. Based on the radar, a large storm system is moving into the area around dinner time. Just what we need: move water in the lower level. This morning there was over an inch, with no where to go, since the drains in the lower level are not functioning. Once the framers get the subroof on, the plumber starts to rough everything in on both levels.

Another problem we face is drainage around the house. The whole area is saturated and we are getting some erosion. The contractor is going to backfill, once we get a few dry days. The extended forecast shows another seven (7) days of rain.
