UNtil this last series of storms, the snowpack in the area mountains was at 180% of average.
Now, a series of tropical storms have been pounding our area, bringing torrential rains, high winds and warmer temps...creating disasters on top of disasters.
All of our dams are at capacity, all the rivers are at flood stage, the spillway at Oroville dam has failed and we still have several waves of storms coming in. Add to that, highways being washed away, highways closed to due high winds (after trucks and RVs get blown over) and numerous landslides around the area.
And Winter isn't done yet - this could get interesting...
