I'd say the reason we are in a "flood drought" is because of Orwellian doublespeak. Just like we can have a "global warming ice age"!

Some more uncle intel for you folks. Remember one of our own, so take it or leave it.

By the time some of the bigger events come around there’s going to be a lot of people fatigued, wore out and just simply out of steam concerning some of the bigger events. These are small events that will cause many devastations on CA. You have the storm patterns that kept coming in, but these storms have depressed a lot of people out there. They have been worn out by the rain. This will be followed up by a dryness they have never experienced before. Remember when I said that it was a shame that they couldn’t capture all the water?

Yes most of the water is run off, but they are going to smash all records this year coming up concerning heat. It’s coming. It’s going to be very hot, very dry but there’s still going to be flooding in a lot of places where there shouldn’t be flooding.

Q- The Bible also talks about that. In the book of Hosea it says that it will rain in one city and not two other cities. The two cities will have to travel over to the one city. There still won’t be enough water. This is what is prophesied in the last days.

I wonder if they upgraded the power infrastructure at the main spillway gatehouse during their repairs last year.

I remember reading that there was no power available at the facility to operate the gate hoists or pressurize the gate seals.

Everything had to be done with portable generators. I remember seeing the power cables strewn around the hoist deck along with a portable water pump for seal pressure.

That seems pretty sketchy for the nation's tallest dam, especially when it has it's own power-generating facility.

Forecast for relatively high temps in the valley for the next few days. Mid-60s.

Above freezing in the higher elevations? Snowmelt?

Still no spillway cam available.

Does anyone else think that 'lifeguard' placeholder drawing is creepy AF?

Catatonic kids, black bird, dark figures down the beach and odd colors. It makes me uncomfortable just looking at it.
