More rain on the way

We've had rain and storms every few days for the last week. Yesterday was hot and humid, had to get the lawn cut while I could. It rained in the evening and really came down during the night. Cloudy and cool today with occasional showers.

We have a small drain pipe under the road in front, it comes out at the property line between our house and the one next door. This morning when I went to get the paper I see a big pile of leaves the rain pushed out of the pipe. Then I see leaves scattered along the low spot for over 100'. We've been here almost 9 years, the only time I've seen water come through that pipe was during a winter thaw when the temps shot up to 60, so we must have had a down pour last night.
