California Flooding?

[Sourdough Scott]

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 .

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.

High water line on my claims below Goodyears was within one foot of 97 level where my equipment is stored.

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.

Scott, it takes a lot of water to do that...you are making me homesick for Portola!

Sierra Valley must be a huge duck-pond right now.

best wishes

Fred, it is. We got 14" of snow overnight. Going to check the river here in a bit.

After all of this and more yet to come ... where is the gold going to stop on the Yuba?  Where did it stop after 97?
