To refresh your memory, lots of rain fell on Boston on Sunday, 20-
Oct-1996. Read more here:

What I’m looking for is information about the source of the water. I
presume it came from the Muddy River. There is about a five foot high
levee between the Muddy River and the D line. The levee extends from
Fenway Station to Aspinwall Avenue (between Longwood and Brookline
Village). Did the water breech the levee in one place or was the
water so high that it came over the levee everywhere? How high was
the “river” on the D line?
