I've been searching and just can't find the source of the "flooding" in Fantasyland and Adeventureland? All these CM's with squegee sweepers, lol..

All of the ground is sprayed down every morning - perhaps they are wiping it up before the crowds come in?

The only other thing would be just before Wishes the ground is wet down for safety in case of a stray firework - perhaps they wipe up after?

After heavy rains, they often help things along by pushing any standing water into the drains, spreading out the remaining water and allowing the pavement to dry faster (thereby lessening any chances of Guests slipping on wet pavement).

You want to see flooding in the MK, look for the pics and videos from a couple years ago of the Speedway under 3' of water during a downpour because of a clogged/broken drainage pipe...

Stand in the parking lot at DHS where they have one drain where all the water flows. You can't miss it!

The reason for all of the water in those areas is due to the fact that just prior to the Wishes firework show, Disney will spray down the roofs of most of the buildings in the area to prevent fires from the firework show. The water from the roofs will eventually travel off of the rooftops. Look up at some of the roofs in the area, specifically near Peter Pans flight and they are covered in hay like material.
