Sourdough Scott Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Within a foot of the Veterans Memorial Hall . I was able to walk to the trees in the forefront this morning . It has risen approximately 3 feet since this morning . My house is at the same level as the hall, but I have hwy 70 to buffer me slightly. Although, the flooding is working it's way up the drainage ditch towards my house. Safe for now. Will update in the morning . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reno Chris Posted January 10, 2017 Author Share Posted January 10, 2017 Quote I see a fella took advantage of the opportunity to wash his tractor. Why didn't I think of that? In the 1997 flood, a guy in Nevada tried to wash his dozer that way (he was doing some last minute repairs in preparation) and was washed away. They found his dozer half a mile down stream (well washed no doubt). Never found his body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Wish I would have made a trip up there yesterday afternoon! The Downie/Lavezzola/Paulie and other feeders to the North Yuba probably rose pretty high also. Hope there is no property damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
