Oh no, we suck again? said:

I need to figure out how to disconnect it and maybe put another one on? It's in a dug in tub in the backyard so I have to figure out how to unscrew it from the pipe that shoots the water to the curb... I'm hoping that it just overheated and after a brief reprieve, it'll start up again.

If you can get one down there you can just connect a garden hose to the pump and bypass the pipe.

Crazy rain for about 15 minutes. Almost an 1.5", yard is swamped front drive is a river.

At least there was no hail or high wind!

Win some lose some.

Sheesh. This rain.

Btw, anyone else now watch the oncor power outage map versus radar to see how bad things are?

I just went a looked and can't figure out how to disconnect it and the tub isn't big enough to put another pump in it.

The setup is that it takes the roof drains and the backyard drains into the tub then shoots it out to the curb as my yard is .5 acre and flat as can be. Praying that today's storm is all for today/tonight and the company can swing by tomorrow to replace the pump so I can survive until I get all the new work done.

If the stuff in the panhandle makes it here, gonna be more heavy rain.

That atmosphere got pretty worked over with that storm that just came thru and without much daylight left to regenerate it should take energy away from the overnight stuff.

Please be right! Accuweather is showing some rain between midnight and 2 am, I'm hoping if anything, it's just light rain.

Lake highlands. 2" in about 1 hour. 9" over the last 7 days.

Makes 12.5" for us since May 22 in Plano

Are we close to annual amount?

North Dallas at Frankford and Hillcrest area. Easily over 10" in the last 7 days. My yard is beyond saturated. I had fajitas marinating all day, and then this storm popped up about 5:15. I'm a commercial insurance broker for real estate, namely apartments, and every single inspection recommendation I send out is "don't grill on the balcony as it's a fire hazard" and yet I pulled my grill into the garage to grill tonight. Every part of me panicked, but I didn't want to make these in the skillet.

I'm at 31.25" YTD in Farmers Branch. I think yearly average is about 33" so we're there and it's June 2...crazy
