Umm... Is that a storm or sewer manhole cover?!?! haha... I work for the city here and deal with the water/storm/sewer stuff. I could be wrong but, storm covers dont usually have water bubbling out like that since all our storm is gravity fed to the ocean. Only time I've seen that kinda action is from sewer laterals that are backed up from all the rain water plus sewer and pretty much the sewer system is still pumping so it flows out of the manholes and will typically find its way to a storm drain - to the ocean. haha... Hope I'm wrong on that. hehe.. (go wash your shoes). hehe..

Yeah they're fine, thank God.

I sandbagged the hell out of out my garage door and front entrance way, but the water stopped about 5' feet before my foundation. Talk about luck.

My house and both neighbors on either side didn't get any water inside the house - everybody else on our street had damage. Amazing
