Bay Area is getting soaked right now!

[yuiyoshida]

After a five years of drought, this just seems great!! I love the sound of driven rain on my
windows!!

1. That's wonderful news!

You'll sleep well tonight with the sound of the rain.

2. I hope this doesn't mean mudslide season n/t

4. It's always something. At least we don't regularly get tornadoes.

7. The thing with Mudslides...

If you have had a lot of fires, like which sometimes happens in Southern California, the trees are burned down to the roots. When that happens, the soil has nothing to hold on to, so add a little water, and down hill gravity, and whoosh!! Mudslides!

11. I hope that isn't my mail order train.

9. Trudy I am sure it will eventually

get down there to you.. Hopefully its traveling in a south westerly directions. We have a high wind advisory as well. High Profile Vehicles will get blown off the road if not careful.

8. March Miracle

Bring it on! Climate change has been very tough on California with record breaking heat and drought. 75-degree days in February with minimal rain, and consecutive Januarys in 2014 and 2015 with virtually no precipitation have been awful.

10. Hey welcome to DU, are you in SF too??

I am near Japantown!

[GoldenSF]

17. Yes

I'm in the Cole Valley area.

I started a couple of weeks ago as the primary season has heated up. I originally supported the establishment candidate but switched after being inspired by the alternative.

18. cool beans!

Glad to find another City person on here

[sakabatou]

12. Yep, it's real wet

But the drought may continue

[Little_Wing]

13. It is storming like hell up here in the Santa Cruz mountains

Waiting for the power to go out. High winds/driving rain... It will be an uneasy night as the storm will increase as the hours pass.

There are skylights in all the rooms and it is NOT a peaceful sound here. :::looks for earplugs:::

14. Turning into Snow in the North Sierras ...

I guess its not spring yet...

[Little_Wing]

15. So great to see our beautiful mountains dressed in white!

[yuiyoshida]

16. All that white stuff will melt and head down

stream and eventually end up in our Reservoirs where they belong !
