mark poulson Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 I live in NorCal, and I'm looking for a magic formula to make it stop raining, at least temporarily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 No joke. You guys are SERIOUSLY getting hit. Here in Fresno, I'm considering getting some sand bags. First time in over 30 years living here! Hang in there, brother. Looks like Tuesday's the end of it here. Hope it's the same for you.

Dink Master Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 Please send the rain to Lake Powell & Lake Mead Lake Powell is 175 feet below full pool! Lake Mead is 183 feet below full pool! The US Open belongs at Lake Mead, not Lake Mohave. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a move to Mexico may stop the raining you're wanting & definitely needing Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Young Posted January 15, 2023 Report Share Posted January 15, 2023 Man you all have sure had it awful with the unbelievably bad drought & now the torrential rains lately. Stay safe Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted January 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2023 This rain is a blessing and a curse. We need the rain, and the snow, but not all at once. When will the State Water Board recognize that climate change has altered our weather patterns permanently, and begin planning for it, instead of spending billions trying to close the barn door after the horse has already left?

alsworms Posted January 15, 2023 Report Share Posted January 15, 2023 Here is a picture of the San Joaquin River, which runs east/west just a few miles north of my house. The water you see in the forefront is not actually the river bed. The bed is past the trees in the back. This is the first time I've seen any water in the forefront in over 40 years! I can't imagine the damage done to the structures on the bed. Such a shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
