It rained steadily the afternoon
of the 22nd
and all through the night.
The static design of the hermetic seal was tested under dynamic
conditions,
and mostly passed. Rivulets formed, and if they ran across a nail
or
staple hole in the plastic, a drip occurred. Then Keith would
poke
at the plastic to reroute the rivulet.
Pools of water would form sags in the plastic and offered the
possibility
of a more catastrophic failure. These pools were discovered at
night
with a flashlight. They were dealt with by pushing upon from below to
empty
them, then jerry rigging lumber to turn a concave collector into a
convex
shedder.
