So the sun came back (briefly) after more than 6" of rain were dumped in some parts of the city over the weekend. WMU lost its postponed homecoming game to Akron on Sunday, after the ground crews were able to clear about 2 feet of standing water from the stadium field. You figure that the stadium has the proper infrastructure to deal with heavy rainfall, but this was just unprecedented. I think most of the interior spaces were spared. They managed to produce sandbags rather quickly from somewhere close by.
