In Chandler, we don't have a lot of storm drains. So each neighborhood usually has water retention areas for the occasional downpour. Here's one in my 'hood. During the dry times, we use it like a park. When it rains, the water will flow down the street and into this catch basin.
Kids love to play in the temporary lake. Sometimes you even see the sprinklers going off and you get an impromptu fountain. Now that would be a picture!
