Frequently asked questions
The lake was already full when the remnant arrived. Does that change anything?
It removes the margin. When a remnant lands on a full lake the two stack and the valley has no unused storage, so October water backs into the lowest cellars. A partly empty lake absorbs the same storm without anyone noticing.
We had the plumbing checked and it is sound. Where is the water coming from?
From under the block. Mill raceways beneath Forestville still carry water with nothing in the house failing at all, so a plumbing inspection comes back clean and the cellar stays wet. The source predates the plumbing by a century.
Forestville's clock shops are gone. Why would an October cellar still take the Pequabuck?
The shops left; the canals did not. Clock plants raised the river into raceways under those blocks, and covering them left voids that still wet. An October remnant then finds a Forestville cellar with no storm on the street and no plumbing failure in the house.
