The Biannual SE Flood

Whenever we have a fantastic rain, usually about twice a year, the street corner I live on in Marcy-Holmes floods. At its worst, I've had to take off my shoes and start wading a block away from the apartment. Last year my car was under 2 feet of water and some precious mix tapes got soaked. It's a great community-building event, though, because everyone goes out and helps people push their cars to higher ground.
