We are just fine. Our house is on high ground, and doesn't have a basement. We had just last month cleaned the roof and gutters, so the unusually large amounts of water are still not going anywhere they shouldn't.
Kaja et al were not quite so carefree. Despite keeping a close eye on the drains, one of them plugged up and a quantity of water made it into the basement packing room. Luckily, she found the problem soon after it occurred, the drain was unclogged, and the tedious, nasty job of stripping out the soggy carpet could commence.
Today has been the far more typical alternation of light rain and bits of sun.
