Here comes The Flood.

curious2garden · Feb 12, 2017

@Aeroknow was just saying that over in What are you watching! Scary stuff.

Singlemalt · Feb 12, 2017

I was thinking Aero might be nearby, dunno but figgered a headline might be needed. Good luck amigos in the region

Singlemalt · Feb 12, 2017

I called my kid in Davis, she didn't even know. She'll be fine, but sheesh, clueless

Aeroknow · Feb 12, 2017

And of course if this shit happens, it will be during the night.
And if it doesn't happen tonight, we have another Major storm coming in a couple days . Unbelievable.
I just filled up 5 gas tanks for the generator, and filled up the car. It's the busiest I've ever seen it up here.

Dude, as if this wasn't hairy enough! There's major flood warnings under Keswick, far far down the 5. This could be so very bad for allot of the north state.

Singlemalt · Feb 12, 2017

This shit happens every 20 or so years. Hopefully my last one, getting too old for this shit lol

Your not getting away that easy SM ....cutting trees to build you an ark ....and pretty sure it's not animals you want on it ....lol...........I'm in Cali as well and I can't believe the water were getting here in my little streams and rivers behind the ranches ......everything's high ....including me

Singlemalt · Feb 12, 2017

Yeah, I thought you are in NE of the state, kinda out of the immediate danger. Folks forget that when Americans started over running Calif(1830-40), the central valley was basically a big drainage lake Stay dry amigo and safe

Singlemalt · Feb 12, 2017

Loading up on propane tmo; the main tank and 3 12g and 5 5gs. Should drop around $500 lol, hell it don't go bad

I'll have to scope this out on the Maps app.

Not that I can personally divert it.

LOL actually I believe YOU and @420God could. All it would take is filling that spillway deficit at the base of the overflow with concrete....... I have complete faith

If we could recruit MacGyver and Mr. T and the A-Team for back up, I'm in.
