My apartment nearly flooded once the downpour started. Its a good thing that I was able to improvise and put my phone books to use for once and fill in the cracks with dirt and mulch from nearby (and the rain slowed). Minor flooding isn't unusual for this apartment since it is low lying, but it usually doesn't go much past the stairs or porch. Today was different. The combination of over an hour of heavy downpour and a new landscaping job left my apartment especially vulnerable, turning my staircase into a river. I called the office, they said they would send maintenance but I lost hope of that since its already past 5 PM here. The video and first few photos are from before my handywork, the remainder are of the aftermath. San Diego, CA. January 18, 2010.
