We are getting it now, south of you hheynow. I was doing 35 mph on the FREEWAY trying to keep the big rig in front of me in sight! I have not seen rain like this in years.

Yep.. It's Rip'n down again.. 45* rain, in 20 mph wind. Good thing about it down here is.. Breaks in the action.. gets a chance to soak in. But the Night-crawlers are pop'n up.. so I'm think'n the ground is getn to the "refusal" point.

Flooded out 4 Gophers I didn't know I had. Flat nose shovel Dispatchez them.. to the Big Tunnels & Mounds in the Sky.

Thats a normal day here..... and it's starting today.

 

[BIG JOE]

I halfta keep reminding myself of that.. usta live in R.I., But for this part of Cali anyway, this rain is a Major, Major Event.

Today is more like a soaking rain w/o the wind than the past four storms that blew through rather quickly. Still have small streams and creeks flowing very fast. Fields around here are starting to look like small lakes. But the real deal is our reservoirs filling up so here is where that info can be found.

Sure glad I have new tires and got my brakes working perfectly just prior to this extended rain episode.
