According to "Weather Underground" we're only about 2 1/2 inches short in precipitation YTD. Also according to this source the Lehigh Valley got 2 1/2 inches more this month then average. The state is saying however, these heavy downpours mostly ranoff before being absorbed into the ground.
Well I hate to disagree but for the first time in 10 years some water came through my foundation into my carpeted basement. The area where it leaked in is located about 2 feet above my basement floor. This happened twice in two nights during those heavy downpours. It sure looked like my ground "absorbed" just fine to me.
To those areas where the dirt didn't absorb water... I'll be happy to trade ya some of mine for yours :-)
