The good news is that it has finally stopped raining - 3 days and 10 inches later. The water level is now down to 1 1/2 inches. The pumps are still working and hopefully the water has stopped coming in and we can jsut keep on pumping.
There is a light at the end of the tunnel.
This was so bizarre, since we have had more rain in the past and not a drop of water in the basement. It must be to combination of the still semi frozen ground and lots of rain in March just after the snow melt. Hopefully it never happens again.
