I seriously have lost track whether this is Storm-Squall Event #3 or #4 or whatever. Since last night we’re at 0.52″ as of about 10:00AM – temps in the mid 40’s, winds gusting to 23mph. Rainfall “to date” (with the Rain Season being July 1st to June 30th) is at 168.0 % of Normal, at 28.64” and ahead of last year’s 22.15″.
My bottom-land seasonal “lake” is back, but the drainage is flowing as best it can, heading out down Dry Creek – a seasonal creek – and so long as rainfall isn’t measured in inches-per-hour we should be good. Lotta snow dropping in on the High Country.
Not Clauswitz 
Apparently Oroville is filling at the rate of 2.47 feet per DAY! So yes, y’all are getting a LOT of rain!

Wow that’s good news! Highway 50 has been closed then open then closed again due to snow, so apart from skiers, that’s good news too.

Good point! Skiers are $$$ in the bank for y’all!

Maybe God looked down upon the toilet of California, and decided to flush? 🙂
Kinda like all the rain in China a while back, and Yellowstone, it’s really in the wrong place / time.
I won’t mind at all if this stuff makes its way to the Western slope, but I’m already tired of snow and winter. Yeah, we need the water on this side too.

One of my friends lives in Lompoc, and they’ve been getting dumped on pretty good. We’re a bit light on moisture this year; only one ‘real’ snow this far. The rest has been 2″” here, 3″ there. The snow pack in the Rockies is good this year, but we’ve been DRY.

Hopefully some of this stuff will go up over the Continental Divide and get you some!
Last year we got a lot early then mid-January-February-March it all dried up…

We have many of our friends and family still in California. Everyone seems to be OK in spite of the oddball WX.
Looking on the radar, it seems like a lot of snow in the Sierras. Arizona will get some of that over the next couple of days but certainly not as much of it.

Glad to hear everyone’s OK! Maybe this is the beginning of the end of the “drought” alarmism we’ve had to suffer from the EnviroWeenies since I was in high school!? They even dragged out that old phony prognosticator Paul Ehrlich to repeat his The World is Ending shtick. Sheesh.
