Flash rain storm could be a tad inconvenient.

I've sat in the balcony of the Lake View hotel many times and watched the rain. Good drainage there, no issues with heavy rain and it gives the street sweepers a break!. I will say there is a downside to it though, just before dawn morning EVERY morning, they wash the streets so if you're on the main street and you're a light sleeper it can be annoying. One more warning: Don't let your kids jump in the puddles in the street, that's not water!
