When the downspout clogs and the gutters fill up, do they suddenly flip
open
and dump the water all over.

I have an unusuall problem. There's only one downspout and it seems to be
at the higher end of the house. There's is always some water at the oposite
end. Debrish, whatever makes it past the cover, slowly accumulates at that
end.

Not sure if the house has settled over time, or the gutters have. There
does not seem to be way to lift the existing gutters up, or bend them up.
