[@kristismith2915]

Love when couch commandos get in here and critique people who are out doing the actual work.

[@kaywatson6505]

This couch commando has nothing but respect and awe for this marvelous feat.

[@MakeTheAdjustment1979]

At least he has a helmet on

[@John-w2w2q]

I agree. He’s doing a good thing for his community.

It’s his job to do this, if was not, he wouldn’t care.

Where is there? Is that Vietnam or Taiwan? That’s a lot of water he was wading in. Would have love to see the exit end of that.

Great job The weather is going crazier every year So this will been more often

[@dellolds4802]

Thank you!

[@1m2022]

You're welcome!

[@jodirauth8847]

There is no way the local municipality could ever clean all of the drainage grates in one year. Even small cities of 40,000 can have as many as 7000 drainage grates to maintain. If home owners were to clean the ones in front of their own homes it would make a huge difference

[@SilverAuntie]

At the apartment complex where I used to live, we had a couple of drains right in front of my building. They regularly got clogged, and we'd have to wade out to get to our cars. I started going out after it stopped raining, and sweep the grates free of debris. It's amazing how a few (or a lot of) leaves in the Fall can clog the drainage system, not to mention trash. The maintenance crew finally saw me out there a time or two and, the next thing I knew, they were regularly cleaning the drains and gutters, and so we no longer flooded every time it rained.😁

[@JustaGuy_Gaming]

It would mostly help in either very short rain burst, or after it rains to let it drain. While it's actively going you'd have to clear the drains several times an hour to make a real impact. And yes the City could do it far easier, all they have to use is street sweepers or something similar to them. But instead of cleaning every gutter just drive over the sewer grates, assuming the city can find a way to clearly mark them that isn't just paint on the ground. Paint you can never see once things flood.

[@davispaul82]

In Germany they have a mobile unit that drives around cleaning drain. I think you section it off it could be done.

[@renzbustillos2911]

Big support for the locality me too doing that

[@thisgarbageiscoralgable.88]

Good job ! I have been clearing and opening our storm drains for many years, and sending photos and videos to our city public works department as well. If you are able to lift one end of the grate and slide it back several inches, the drain will be able to get rid of much more water much faster. 😎

[@1m2022]

Appreciate 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥰🥰🥰

[@merrileeheard3889]

Me to! We live in a very rainy city and we actually have an adopt a cache basin program! You sign up and clear the debris! My granddaughter and I will be adopting one in January since I'll be away. I totally LOVE doing it, it's incredibly satisfying! And, at 73, it's great exercise 😊

[@kogerlaan]

Keep protecting your hands. People throw away lots of nasty things...!!!

[@muckle8]

Doing the jobs the local councils should be doing but DONT. - well done bud.

[@phcert6267]

So individual residents shouldn't be responsible for cleaning the debris in front of their individual residences, ever??? Oh.

[@muckle8]

@phcert6267. Did I say that or is that in your own mind? 🤔

[@phcert6267]

​@@muckle8 You intimated that it is the government's responsibility. I asked... Isn't it our responsibility too; which, I think it is. Take it as you wish.

[@田尻雅美]

I was wondering why the lip on that driveway was so high but looking at how much water you get is amazing. Great job. You probably could get a pressure washing video out of this looking at that driveway. Great job. Post 10 couldn’t have done it any better.

[@sc1794]

Most wait on the city or county to fix the issue.sometimes you have to help yourself. I get paying taxes but thats a whole other can of worms. Thank you to those who do these kind of things.

[@susanc-c7817]

If each person took a little responsibility and cleared outside their own home boundary there would be no problem

[@billydridder]

People tend to show more responsibility and general civic pride around their home as actual home owners vs renter, because they have more invested in being a property owner vs being on borrowed time as a renter. Thank private equity firms for this, and many other, problems tied to the lack of housing that is for sale to the everyday potential homeowners. Home owning is one of the only ways the average working class can build any real equity for retirement.

The government should clean it before the rainy season, it would be more easy that way. Plan ahead the cleanup....

[@lorettathomas545]

It's the many ppl who freely litter every chance they get.

[@segadavern]

How about you get of you butt and mobilise community members to clean up.

[@cynthiahawkins2389]

Hello from New Orleans - I always carry trash bags with me, when I feed our community cats. And I clean up while they are eating, then take away the dishes and keep things neat. Anyone, anywhere can do one small thing...right??
