There's no water in the downspout, that's just the pressure from the
several inches of water in the top of the barrel. As you may have
noticed, the 'seal' between the downspout and the top of the barrel is
just some sloppy tape ( for now ). Not to mention, the screw-on cap is
off the top, as well, so there's no way for pressure to build ( other than
the several inches to the top of the barrel, that is ).
I'm not looking to make a pressure washer, though ;) I just want the
damn overflow to overflow.
Thanks.
