CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Heavy rainfall this week has turned a familiar drainage ditch in Corpus Christi's Molina neighborhood into what looks more like a river.
The Columbia Ditch, which runs along Columbia Street on the city's westside, normally holds just a few inches of standing water. This week's downpours have pushed water levels to within just a few feet of overflowing.
A staff member who lives in the Molina neighborhood said the last time he saw this much water in the ditch was in the late 1980s.
