Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dreman" data-source="post: 1031063" data-attributes="member: 61303">I was affected mostly by missing work, and being very busy getting ready for the storm.  We have always had problems with the back yard flooding and trying to get to the front yard through the house.  I am opposed to this, and want the water to go around. I dug a trench to the street during hurricane Ike years ago, and I spent time expanding that around the patio in back of the house. It really seemed to help, but we still got a few cupfuls of water through the back door. I cleaned it all up and found the source of the leak, which I sealed after it all dried up. Otherwise, no issues for us. We didn't even lose power for very long.  We spent most of the time after the storm helping everyone else get to safety and clean up.</blockquote>
