contact your water board and tell them0

I wouldn't say it's unusual. Probably due to ground water and run-off......0

Not unusual, mines like that. There is normally a thick polystyrene disk wedged in the pipe that the meter sits in. I'm not sure if this disk is to prevent water getting in, or to prevent any water that does get in from freezing. These disks go missing eventually, for some reason I don't understand."You were only supposed to blow the bl**dy doors off!!"0
