Default Re: Current weather

A very large moisture system is moving into the area. It's currently about 50 miles offshore and the party (rainfall) is expected to start about midnight. We could get our entire annual rainfall (7 inches) over the next few days.

Most of our municipal water supply is not local. It comes from both the Colorado River watershed and central CA. The former is doing fine but the latter is currently at about 35%. That's bad news for California's agricultural belt. For us, it means about 70% of "full" levels. We've been getting by on 80% for a number of years now.
