It's the calm before the storm here. An Atmospheric River is supposed to deliver a couple inches of rain tomorrow (roughly 10 pct of our average annual rainfall).
This is where all that roof repair pays off, doc.
Fact.
I was watching this update on Lake Oroville last night. Sounds like they’ve been discharging water in anticipation of the two storm systems headed your way, but that the reservoir level is tracking well ahead of where it has been in recent years. Hopefully it’s snow and not rain that you get, but either way, good news for the water situation.
It had better not be snow that we get. We are at 69 feet above sea level.

But snow in the Sierras would be welcome.
