California Drought

[NoTrespassing]

Any prediction on Lake Mead or Lake Powell levels come spring? What are some of the reservoirs in Southern California? I think that Powell and Mead will be up from last years levels.

Here's a photo showing the South Yuba River right now, one of many origins for all that water.

Raging water on the South Yuba River : Sacramento


(Photos - Normal summer water levels there)


That's sort of my 'back yard', I used to go 4-wheeling on the fire roads in that region years ago. Grandpa was a mining engineer in charge of several gold mines up that canyon. Dad and I explored and found a couple of the sites where he had worked for his father 60 years prior.

The 160 year old barn on the property is getting very close to having a corner undermined... a creek with normally no flow most of the year and little the rest is about 10' deep right not and a torrent...

We'll see how things look in the morning.

Make rain drops and flooding great again!

Growing up we had plenty of times with widespread flooding... it was not unusual here in the greater bay area.
