Frequently asked questions
Only the Maumee looks high. Why is the Auglaize-side cellar wet?
Because the Maumee is the dam for the other two. A high Maumee holds the Auglaize and the Tiffin against the same terrace. May rain on that pool has no outlet. Naming one river misses a three-mouth table. Until all three mouths fall, May rain has no exit from the fort terrace.
Two of the three rivers dropped. Why is the cellar still wet?
Because all three have to. This terrace sits at a confluence, and until every channel falls the ground under it has nowhere to drain. Two out of three is not progress the basement can feel.
The fort is a park. Why would it still wet a house on Holgate Avenue?
The fort named the point; the rivers still meet there. Holgate Avenue is the bench above that pool. May water in the confluence is the water table under the bench. A park sign does not lower the Maumee. The rivers still meet at that point, park or no park.
