More rain in tomorrow's and Wednesday's forecasts.
Yep, an inch is scheduled for tomorrow. The rain frog has collected 18", which is the historical yearly average. Nothing new, just an absence of a couple years.
The drought enthusiasts might finally shut up their doom & gloom--but I doubt it. Pessimists love cheering for misery.
They have never been satisfied, nor will they ever be. Being saddled with short-term memories (many due to illegal drug use) and highly deficient educations, they are not aware of, or deliberately choose to disremember, the local floods of '95 and '97 that closed all outside access to my area. We couldn't get out and others couldn't get in for three days, till the river receded enough to allow vehicle traffic over the Salinas River's three bridges.
Actually, the drought that the media, and doom and gloomers proclaim as being of record length is factually incorrect. Those who study rock formations and tree rings, for a living, have evidence that California has sustained droughts of 50 to 150-years. The current three-year drought is but a drop in the bucket. (Intended or unintended pun, take your pick.)
