Mysterious Flow Turns Yard Into PondView MessagesViewing posts 1 to 12 of 12 messages posted.
“http://www.wesh.com/news/15942620/detail.html LONGWOOD, Fla. -- A Longwood family's yard looks more like a pond as water surges from a mysterious hole on Monday. Ed Wolek checked with his utility company, and they keep telling him it's ground water. The 4-foot-wide, 4-foot-deep hole has been gushing water for days. Wolek said he's afraid to dig around it because he doesn't want a pond to appear in his back yard. He's not sure if he should be worried about his home. "At this point, I don't know," Wolek said. "We were talking about remodeling, and I wanted a water feature, but not in my back yard." Wolek shot some video of the clear water gushing from the ground a few days ago. He said it filled up the hole with around 300 gallons, and it's now starting to seep into his neighbor's yard. He rented a pump which can pump out 150 gallons per minute, but that's only a temporary solution. Wolek is convinced it's a spring. He hopes someone can come out, take a look at it and help him before it gets bigger.” 10:00:13 AM 4/21/08 “At least it's not lava” 10:16:35 AM 4/21/08 “Septic tank...” 10:30:17 AM 4/21/08 “LOLz.. well I noticed there are several bottled water places around?” 10:41:59 AM 4/21/08 “look for nearby construction that might have altered the flow of ground water.” 10:54:04 AM 4/21/08 “The alligator population has grown so high that the gators are invading the natural habitats of humans.
