How High 3

Although we have had over 20 inches of rain courtesy of Harvey, the water never made it in our front door - it came right up to it, but never got in.  
The last band of heavy rain was ending, and I was feeling pretty smug when I walked barefoot across our living room carpet about one a.m. this morning...
Apparently the flood water seeped in via weep holes in the brick.  Only a fraction of an inch, but enough to ruin the carpet.  I'll be using the shop vac to dry it as much as possible.
For now, the rain here has stopped, and the water level in our yard has dropped by at least four inches overnight.
