If this is what it looks like to be prepared for lots of rain...we are in big trouble! What's even more troublesome is that this is not on some building that is falling apart or in disrepair. This is attached to a fairly new building. So, I wonder if an inspector really
inspected every aspect of the construction. Maybe it was overlooked and thought of as less important than say the roof? Well....isn't this where the runoff from the rains pelting the roof are going to go? But I suppose if the rain gushes straight down as opposed to down and gently out it may not matter much because the result will just be rolling onto the concrete anyway? I wonder if there would be more damage, velocity, some scientific thing if the water comes straight down? Why would the spout divert the flow anyway? How important is it? Should we worry, steer clear, avoid...? Now I'm worried...just another of those things we need to look out for I guess...
