A week of rain after a drought can flood floors ~ Bronxville NY 10708

For weeks, we have been relatively rain free and New York has actually been in drought through early September.  Our horse, Krys, has been out of grass for weeks at the barn where she lives upstate...it's like a dust bowl this summer.

But, now forecasters tells us we'll have a rainy week and weekend.

So, check your basement as the rain moves in and hangs over us, off and on all week and through the weekend.  Most days will have a shower or two, but thunderstorms are predicted and that means a lot of water in a short period of time in Westchester County.  We need the rain and may get up to 1" this week.

This Thursday looks dry and I'm heading up to ride Krys, but rain returns Friday and may last through Sunday.  Keep those sump pumps going and check your drains as the leaves start to turn and fall, so you do not have a flooded basement.  

Let it rain! ~
