I know that in 2004 we got a LOT of rain, happens every 6 - 8 year, waiting for the Russian River to do its thing. This Climate Change thing is a pain. /s

All righty, then, That means you remember the famous weatherman Stormin’ Norman and his claim to fame…My father was a pilot and we flew over the delta during all this flooding. in 1972. I would have been 13 at the time & do remember viewing it from the air.
Another in the same @ time line ... ROSEVILLES railyard Munitions explosions, was working out at the Denios Auction when it happened !!! BOOM/S !!!!!!!!
And was at Sac Executive airport during the airshow when the F86 Saber Jet crashed into FARRELS Ice Cream parlor on Freeport ave.
Sac native threw & threw
The guy sure knew where the hot spots were!!

It has to be bad for sure. I’m a big fan of professional dirt bike racing. Winter season is stadium supercross racing. This last weekend was supposed to be in Oakland coliseum. It was postponed until February. Now they aren’t afraid to race in the all out mud. They have many times in the past. This is the first I can ever remember one being called off for rain. Must be crazy bad.

It's a weird winter. Usually that rain that California is getting would be up in Oregon, Washington and BC.
We've received very little rain so far, up here in BC. Last winter we got drenched.
Most winters I've lived in BC, we get just a little rain but it was every day. Like 0.5mm or 1mm a day, but taken over 80-100 days with a few heavier days thrown in there, it was a good amount of rain at a reasonable pace. But last year it came in massive dumps.
This year we haven't had the consistent rain. More just a few big dumps, here and there. But the weather has been leveling-out recently. Getting randomish amounts between 0 and 4mm a day this week.

Gents,
Central Coast Cali here. We needed the rain, but a seasons worth in in the span of a week or two took its toll. My buddies business in Morro Bay was a total loss.
This oak used to be in my backyard, and my woodshed with two cords of oak cut and hand split by yours truly teeters on the ragged edge…
“Gentlemen…start your chainsaws”!

9 out of next 10 days forecasted to be sunny! Thank goodness for the break in the weather! Hopefully many got negatively affected can regroup and recover. I know people with many down trees from the weather this year so chainsaw sales and tree services guys will do well for a while.

Luckily not my place but just down the street, I've got a large oak tree next to my house, if it goes, it'll take my shop and who knows what. We had some serious wind, 50+mph.

HogKiller,
It’s Santa Margarita Creek. Starts off in Tassajara Canyon and dumps out into the Salinas River.

Prayers are with y’all. We’re all too familiar with big winds and heavy rains and the havoc they wreak. Hope y’all recover and get to dull normal quickly.

As usual I've got my geography totally wrong, I'm North West of you, lived in this state for 7.5 decades and still don't know diddly.

Yeah, Lots of flooding down in San Diego. And of course, there are always those folks who drive around the "Road Closed" signs because they think they are special and will make it accross...
