"Rincon from Coarsegold - how far up the road did you get?
You appear to be on the open ridge just before the Mile High turnout which would put you around 5300 feet.
Has the snow from last week melted off to that point?"
No snow to that point, but just around the corner the road had snow on it. That's as far as I went. The snow was solid ice from being rained on.
Your welcome DMT!

Eric Beck, the warm storm is at LOWER ELEVATIONS than Bishop's.
This maybe could be why you aren't feeling the tropic glow like I am over to the SJV and a mile lower.

I think the storm turned further north than anticipated. Totally missed the Kaweah watershed today. It got up to 13,000 cfs at midnight last night and was down to 5,000 by the time I checked it out at 1:00 today. It was super warm and muggy, if the precip did come this way it would have melted everything out and been quite a show.

Looking at the bright (?) side, think of all the garbage and stuff that this is uncovering for the 2017 Yosemite Facelift. And all the litter and junk that's being flushed clean out of the Valley - not that that is necessarily better.

It just hit 10 feet at Pohono Bridge, plus it's still raining very hard.
We'll see what happens by tomorrow morning.
It will probably hit 12 feet by Monday morning?
The Park is in hard closure mode.
No one in and no one out except by authorized personnel and escort for News media etc.

Is this like a 90-year flood, then? Sounds like.
Werner sounds sterner today..."hard closure mode."
Anders, my precious, think of all the Au coming down the rivers, too.
