Sounds like it might rain a bit tonight.. Stay safe @efaardvark. I hope you don't have to evacuate. --- The weather here has been sunny, but with a very cold wind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not too worried. Around here we have a system of debris basins to catch mudflows and storm channels to direct runoff from rain safely towards the sea. The rain just started last night / early this morning and so far isn't too bad. For now I think we're ok. The channels are flowing but flooding is unlikely to happen from just a day or two of rain. If the rain intensifies however, or lasts for a week or two, then things might get sketchy. Lately the city has been pretty good about keeping the basins and channels clear but flood control work crews can't safely get in to do maintenance and clear debris while it is raining and this storm is supposed to last for a bit. The main concern is that the fire has removed vegetation from the hillsides where the fire burned and the rain will create the conditions for mudslides that can overflow the debris basins and block the channels resulting in flooding. Worth a PSA to keep everyone alert and aware but not much of a cause for concern. Not yet anyway. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's good to hear, I hope it stays safe for everyone and the rain doesn't cause any of those mud slides. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

efaardvark Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Got cold here as the front moved in! It was 66F this morning before it started to rain. It is now 47F. Weather people say the snow level might get down to 3500' too. I'm a bit lower at 1800' but the tops of the nearby hills less than a mile away are at around 5000'. Might see some snow-capped peaks during tomorrow's commute to work. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

efaardvark Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 (edited) There was quite a bit of rain here during the week but today it's back to mostly sunny.Still cool though.The thermometer says 62F but there's a strong breeze that pulls the "feels like" temp down to 57F/14C. Yesterday after the clouds cleared you could see a bit of white on the hilltops but that looks like it's gone today. Supposed to get down to the low 40s (~5C) tonight. Good sleeping weather.

Zeref Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 It's 49F here in Louisville, it doesn't feel so cold, probably because it's sunny. I still have my window open. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
