Wow I didn't know the weather was so bad out there now....Hope it goes well for all the Cali guys...Revo isn't this when You're supposed to go surfing???? I know all the little kids go during hurricanes and tropical storms over here...
 
Good luck man!

We really need the rain in Texas the lakes are all down and we are in drought conditions
This year we have only had 18.97 inches of raid which is 16 inches less then average.
Blow the rain this way please!!

Bruce
Happy New Year
 
Our entire county is a flood zone now. It POURED in buckets all night long. The rivers are rising at over 1 foot per hour and in some places they are already 5-10 feer over flood stage. The next NWS report will be out in 30 minutes. I'm glad I live on a hill.

Wine prices are going to be through the roof next year.
 
Woke up thismorning and still none of the rain they predicted would start last night.

Revo isn't this when You're supposed to go surfing????

To quote Sgt. Hulka from the movie "Stripes", "I'm getting too old for this poop!".

What, go out with my spaghetti arms? In this cold water? It's got to be in the low '50's! And all I have is a springer suit.

Nah, I'll do my once month floating in salty water in the summer waters. At this point I am so deconditioned I might have a heart attack.

I have been down to the Wedge, Salt Creek, Trestles and Seal Beach pier to watch the action though. Amazing year for swells. We mostly get these direct wests in spring.
 
Not too much rain in San Jose. It is raining right now but nowhere close to flooding.

Eddy and Rob, if you guys need a place to stay you have a home at my place.

Eddy is the store under water?
 
the only bad part about living on a hill eddy. when if floods it becomes an island. good luck.!!
 
Rob and I should be fine. We are not close to the rivers.
The store in Petaluma should be fine and I have no clue about the Sebastopol store. Ill find out in a bit. O-well its only stuff. For the price I pay for flood insurance, I don't think its in a flood zone. LOL If it was, I wouldn't be able to afford it.

Southern CA lol


Just talked to my Sebastopol Store. Its fine but the roads are closed. The landlord sand bagged the parking lot in the case that the drains clogged up at the street. Other then that I'm golden.

The songwriter must have stoned out of his gourd in Venice. In No Cal they always get a ton of rain compared to SoCal.
 
Lyrics for: It Never Rains In Southern California

Got on a board a west bound seven forty seven
Didn't think before deciding what to do
All that talk of opportunities, TV breaks and movies
Rang true, sure rang true.
Seems it never rain in Southern California
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California
But girl, don't they warn ya
It pours man it pours.
Out of work, I'm out of my head
Out of self respect I'm out of bread
I'm under loved I'm under fed
I wanna go home
It never rains in California
But girl don't they warn ya, it pours, man it pours.
Will you tell the folks back home I nearly made it
Had offers but don't know which one to take
Please don't tell them how you found me
Don't tell them how you found me give me a break
Give me a break
Seems it never rains in Southern California
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California
But girl, don't they warn ya
It pours man it pours
 
Well, There are Salmon swimming in our parking lot, NO poop!

So being the consummate fisherman why aren't you out there with your rod and reel? I smell dinner!
 
I'm putting on my hip waders now to go help unclog the sewer drains.
What a F-n Mess.

I'm glad to see the management put sandbags up around my door. If they weren't on the ball, I would be shoveling mud out my front door right now.
 
The Volunteer fire guys just showed up in force and asked us to step aside to let them do the job.

K-Mart was totally flooded. The entire store had a foot or more watter. Its a lot different living this then seeing it on the TV. You can see what the water level was on some of the boxes. This is on the high end of the store. FYI, I'm directly next door to them.

Do you have any water? If not do you think some will get to you? Man that sucks, and here I am bitching about 4 feet of snow in 72 hours.
 
Holy poop! WALMART. That is a TON of water to cover the whole area of that place!!!!! Man, Ed I hope your store doesn't get flooded.
