Water was flowing in places I haven't seen it in over 18 years! Washways with 1/4" gravel were washed away. My beach looks like giant fingers carved 8" grooves in it from the shoreline to the waterline.
Yes, we had a heavy downpour here as well. Another sequel to the early August floods. It didn't last too long though. It was part of the frontal passage in the wake of Kyle.
