At some point, the heavy downpour ensues and the water races downhill over the non-absorbant terrain. The willow tree gathers enough moisture out of this feast or famine watering. I suppose it is a rare occurrence to witness a wash rapidly filling up with waters from up the way. Excuse the gabby gal in the second vid.
