The Outdoors from the Indoors today at That Old House.
What does this look like:

behind the house, down to the patio outside the conservatory.

On Saturday, when we traveled down to the Jersey shore to pick up my 99-cent high-end Hooker coffee table

On Sunday. . . we took these pictures through our conservatory windows:
The last time we saw this much water deluge That Old House this quickly, was the first day we owned it, and ran for our soggy lives from the driveway into the sunroom. It's also the day we discovered that rain on a conservatory roof is really loud, and that the boiler room gets water during very heavy downpours.
These pictures aren't great, because they were taken through rain-spattered glass, but you can see the water
on top of the patio pavers, with the ripples from the wind on the surface.
