Heh. I don’t think trying to find out is a good idea. I’d guess 5 to 10.

Yesterday evening the nayber knocks on my door. He wants to know if my crawlspace is full of water. (no, it isn’t). His crawlspace was full of water and it shorted out his AC. He’s been pumping it out all night with a dinky electric pump through a garden hose. Told him I have a sump pump. Wonder how he’ll do during this next round of storms.

I want to do cheezeburgers on the grill today but don’t know if I ought with the wind blowing like this.

Heh, surprised the nayber didn’t have a sump pump. We hope he gets one and soon, looks like we’re due for another round or two this week. btw Have you checked on him today?
Wind seems to be dying down, give the cheezeburgers a whirl, I’d chance it. Got some pruning to do. Oh, the foxglove and penstemon are blooming. Hot Rockets and shasta daisys will bloom soon. Chocolate mint is doing well, almost too well.

Good grief, no sump pump?

Ours is working hard to keep us dry right now. Down the road, Iowa City is flooding... like back in 93 apparently. Really bad.
