From major snow to major rain and flooding!! All in less than a month. A lot of major roads are closed and many landslides are still happening. Guess I should say "Free water"! Come and get it!! Bring a Big boat!

    I wish you could pipe some down here to FL...but only some. This is an excellent capture of that dismal situation, Michael.

    I was just watching the news story on all the flooding in WA and the especially the Seattle area. I used to live in Redmond, but it was way up on a hill. I remember a family being killed by a mudslide one year. Very sad. I hope you are staying dry!

    Sometimes you just wonder, we hardly had any rain in California, drought is Severe Weather for us, and look how much water you have there. Not that I'm wishing for flood but rain to fill up the reservoir would be nice.
