A bit of a deluge: Manholes turned into geysers, underpasses flooded and a man grabbed the chance to kayak down the street
Andy Woodruff watched a kayaker glide down Salem Street in Malden after the torrents stopped this afternoon.
Over in East Boston, Steve Holt watched a geyser erupt on Marginal Street:
That's some stupid hard rain, yous guys. Opened up a manhole geyser here in #EastBoston. @universalhub pic.twitter.com/n5zmhfcbnz

That ain't water
Call it what you will, but that ain't water. That is sewer juice.
THIS
Flood water - especially street flooding water - may have sewage, runoff from lawn chemicals, chemicals from flooded cars and even hazardous materials use sites.
It is a really bad idea to touch if if you do not have to. That goes double for letting your kids play in it.
Ah, those idiots
Gotta hate those Medford idiots who don't think twice about driving fast through a flooded street.
Free car wash day, Yeah Mefah
Free car wash day, Yeah Mefah!
Hope a bear doesn't eat his kayak
