They're not in a flood plain and it flooded because the culverts at the road failed. It's the second time this has happened to them. Unfortunately, as one Vermonter put it, "I've experienced three 100-year floods in the last 10 years". Even the meteorologists are saying the same thing. The 100-year flood will start becoming a more common occurrence. I've also thought about doing the external perimeter drain, but having to tear down a front porch the full length of the house as well a back deck that's 7/8 the width and dig a 7' deep trench isn't in my list of things I want to do...
