We know the answer

After getting home tonight and examining the stream the problem became clear. Somewhere around 10:30 last night the top of a tree broke off (a neighbor heard the crack). The stream splits in two and the tree landed on the left fork. This caused the water to back up and flow over the berm.

We were able to clear out the tree top with an axe and some lifting. Hopefully the problem is gone for this year.
