Shirlington is pretty low-lying. I've been amazed at the seeming randomness of the flooding. The Potomac hasn't really flooded, but many creeks have. I guess the rain has been really heavy in localized areas. Or maybe it just wasn't raining up in the mountains enough to make the big river swell.
I've known for a while that my gutters need attention, but the last few days have really driven that point home.
