It’s unusual how much rain we’ve been getting lately despite it being February.
- Typically the temperature is cold and dry right now, but I live in the southern section of the US.
The people I was with and I might not get freezing un-even temperatures or snow, but every one of us still experience our form of a Winter time season. The lows only get down to the 40s, but the highs rarely jump above 75 degrees on the warmest afternoons. That’s why I’m confused by all of this Winter time rain as of late. The people I was with and I got numerous inches of rainfall yeahterday, and tomorrow we’re supposed to get even more. There are constantly problems buddyd with rainstorms that frustrate me as well. I have to make sure my gutters are cleared otherwise I risk rainwater leaking into my attic. On top of that, the rain storms produce a lot of mud. Sometimes this mud gets all over outside surfaces, especially when it splashes onto my cement walkway leading from my front door to my driveway. I l acquired recently that occasionally heavy rainfall pushes mud into the condensate lines for a/cs. The small PVC pipe carries the waste water from your a/c from the air handler inside to the ground outdoors. The opening to the pipe is rarely more than a few inches above the ground. I have l acquired to wash my condensate line after heavy rain storms to clear away any mud that could have gotten into the opening outside. I don’t want the dirt building up and blocking the flow of water. That would risk a catastrophic flood inside the house.
