The good side of the current CA storm. And a double!
Did you not know that rainbows are formed from sunlight passing through rain? Hmmm…I'll pass... No water.
Interesting - three weeks ago we had 5 in one day. Quite a sharp contrast. Nice picture.For the first 11 1/2 months of this year we had 1.92” of rain. In the past 2 weeks we had 2”. Go figure.
Just finally got to my CA property. Power still out (day 5.) 18" of snow is left-- it was about 2 feet. Pond nearly full and will top the spillway soon. Next storm coming Tuesday. My next problem will be managing the runoff when it starts coming over the pond spillway.They say another storm is coming thru. Perhaps some of the impoundments will recover.
It's never a good rain year in California.Just finally got to my CA property. Power still out (day 5.) 18" of snow is left-- it was about 2 feet. Pond nearly full and will top the spillway soon.

Weather people say: "if no more storms this season, this is no better than last year!" Oh, BALONEY! Last season, the highest my pond ever got was 2 feet below the spillway. And that was after a full winter season, plus spring-time diversion of about 40,000 gals/day of water into it for a couple of months.
This is a very good water year in Northern CA.
