In the range of 5" of rain in Sacramento by Sunday... that's like FIVE FEET of snow on the crest of the Sierra.

I'm just sayin... old man winter is riding the Alaskan express with a tropical depression up his ass. Get ready for some good old fashioned California dumpology.

Don't get caught unawares!

DMT, sorry but I don't see any significant storm pattern in your posted image. Looks pretty scattered and unorganized.

Like spokes of a wheel, DMT.

The acacia rolled onto the power line Thanksgiving eve...

New mast for the power line and tree removed yesterday. I raked the roof and cleaned the gutters.
Next?

$heeeeeit.
Flood watch and nothing but a $hit ton of rain around here.
Kwood will officially have a very solid base after this but what falls ain't gonna be blower. The lower resorts are literally going to get hosed.

Good timing for me since next week is finals.

Check out the forecast for Shasta.

hey there say, moosedrool... get well soon!...

and say, t*r... keep safe... if any doubts, move on out for a bit...
flash floods, or ?wate-gushes? can affect roads when folks least expect it, too...

my brother is up higher, but occasionaly he will travel those areas, too...
good thing when we can plan ahead...

I'm praying the goods get brought to kwood. As someone said earlier, they should have a solidddd base after this blasting.
