The first real "gully washer" storm hit the other night. People soon realized that their roofs may not have been as water proofed as they thought they were. These kind of storms wash out the dirt side roads sending debris, gravel and lots of other items into the main streets that lead to the river and out to ocean. Needless to say the beach becomes a place to avoid after such storms as the ocean kicks a lot of it back onto the beach. The pueblo ends up muddy, wet with sewer systems overloaded due to so many roof drains hooked up to the main sewer lines rather than storm drains. Anyway, things eventually get cleaned up but it is a big mess for a while and we need the water.
