Default What the rain did...

In 15minutes



Valeting bay, about the size of an indoor football court, the whole place had 2" of water in it, which was moving into the showroom!


This is the access drive to the car wash, lower than the road level.



And this was the road, all of the staff cars were parked behind the 4x4, all of which had to be moved asap.

Then not 40mins later the sun came out and all of it disappeared
