The "atmospheric river" that passed over Grass Valley late in October dropped 10 inches in 24 hours! Parts of the Bear River drainage (where my property is} got 12 inches.

The one that is here now won't have as much precipitation, but he snow level will be much lower. As much as eight feet is expected over Donner Summit!

Nature is in charge... no amount of taxes will change the climate.
We have only been documenting weather for about 150, which in no way can show the true 'normal' climate or weather... just patterns.

Every 5-10 years it is an extra wet year or two, following 5-10 extra dry years. Remember when all (or a lot of) the Hwy. 1 bridges were washed out? 2010-2011?

Lol, you just turned it into a 5 page thread once all the climate alarmists who think big government should play nursemaid to us all discover it.

The scientific literacy of nomads is abysmal!

David - it's clear you have absolutely NO Idea how climate science is done - how data are gathered, how it's analyzed, How models are built, how they are proofed, the various types of models, how the data are validated - the sources of data, etc. you ought to consider stopping yourself from publicly displaying your ignorance because of your political beliefs!

Humans have have undeniably changed the climate -= and they can change it the other way - its not a political argument - its science man - deal with it!

Indeed! :light:



Baja would be prime real estate, probably lush, green and well watered. A haven for life, as it struggles to survive, even today.

Let's just hope we get some rain and snow. We sure need it. As native of Southern California, the fickle rains of winter and green hills of springtime are our brief "seasons." Precious jewels of nature.

That was '76 and Hurricane Kathleen (I think) flash flood. Took out the San Diego & Arizona Eastern Railroad line near Ocotillo, too.

Yep, right on David. I think it was Tropical Storm "Doreen" that came thru in "77 doing it's share of damage, tho not as bad as "Kathleen". Exciting times, for sure.

You know what I realize, Barry? The older we get, the more 'weather' we experience and the less unusual these extremes in weather become. In fact, periodic extremes in weather seem to be a normal thing!
Merry Christmas!

Finally getting some good rain and snow in NorCal. October was a good start, the hills are a deep emerald green (last year was dismal). 10-12 feet of snow predicted in the upper Sierras, yay. Fingers crossed it keeps up.

We are driving to and from Reno next week, should be exciting going over the pass.
