Wow! I heard on the news this afternoon, Nor Cal is getting pounded, and there was going to be bad blizzard conditions in the Sierras.

Yeah that was more central but I live in northern California and we have been getting pounded with rain for the last 5 days or so

I hope it stops soon for you guys. That's exactly what happened here in 2013. Just too many days of rain and the ground couldn't hold anymore. The devastation is still evident here. Really sucks.

Yeah the Stanislaus river right behind my house has grown in size like crazy. Starting to pull trees out of the ground.

You have an evacuation plan in place in case you have to bail? And stuff packed and ready?

A good point. Way too many people think it won't affect them. Grab your stuff now. Be ready. Way less traumatic to plan ahead and you'll make much better decisions.

We were land-locked for 3 days when the 2013 flood occurred and we didn't even live close to water. Within an hour the town was cut into pieces. We are pretty prepared people but we always had an evacuation plan of being able to drive to a certain location. The flood changed that plan.

Here is Longmont:

Flooding was worse the 2nd and 3rd day as all the mountain water had to settle lower. We had enough food and water and didn't take water into the house, but it sure woke us up being stranded.

Oh yeah we've both got bug out bags stocked with clothes, MREs and other needed stuff. And damn that is really bad...
 
Crazy stuff. Here a few pictures from two days ago around the central coast. And it hasn't stopped raining yet...

And of course can't talk about flooding without mentioning my home town flooding in '95. IMG_5058.JPG .

Drove through there today. The Pajaro River is raging scary close to the way it was in 95.

Be prepared!

God I remember when we had flooding here in the south a while back. Entire buildings were totally washed off their foundations. Thankfully I wasn't near the serious flooding.

I'm out in Knights Ferry and the river is about as high as I've seen it. We're right across the street from the Stanislaus river.
