Northern California is expected to get the biggest storm that they have ever had starting today thru Friday. They are predicted to get up to 8 inches of rain, with 3 to 5 feet of snow in the Sierra's. Along with the storm, they are saying 80 mile per hour winds possible along with 20 foot waves. Southern California suppose to get 1 to 2 inches of much needed rain from this storm. themselves Mavericks at Half Moon Bay is likely to see some of the largest waves reaching as high as 27 feet during high tide. Stinson Beach and Ocean Beach could see 11 to 18-foot waves. Swells above 20-feet will develop offshore leading to hazardous conditions for mariners. High tide on Wednesday will be at 2 a.m. and 12:38 a.m., Thursday at 2:40 a.m. and 1:12 p.m., and Friday at 3:19 a.m. and 2:02 p.m. The Bay Area is also expecting sustained winds, not gusts, at 74 miles per hour in hills above 2500 feet, which will likely lead to widespread power outages and major tree damage throughout the region. Even lower, flat areas will see gusts above 50 miles per hour. Winds in the mountains will be significantly higher. HURRICANE-FORCE WINDS: 80 Miles Per Hour Forecast For Thursday The North Bay and the Santa Cruz Mountains can expect the heaviest rainfall with up to 8 inches of rain likely. The immediate area surrounding San Francisco Bay can expect 1.5 to 3 inches of rain. Inland areas and the Monterey Bay area can expect 1 to 2 inches of rain, with the Santa Lucia Mountains expecting 2 to 4 inches. Looks like a lot of mud flows & flooding

They are telling us to gas up our cars, not expected to be that bad in Southern California. The water we need, comes from up north, usually the rain we get here does no good as far as our drought. We count our water by measuring the snow pack in the Sierras, where they are expecting a lot of snow. Looks like we just might fill some of those empty lakes up north. Sad part is most of the rain we get here in Southern California goes right out to the ocean. We need this rain bad, just not so much at one time as the mud slides off the mountains here especially this year with all the mud exposed due to all the fires we had. After the storm leave here, they are saying the Midwest will get buried if it continues east. This message has been edited by phil2237 on 12-10-2014 at 09:10 AM |

Looks like we are getting rain all thru next week except for Sunday. Hope this helps fill our lakes. The storm is now hitting the Bay area pretty hard, They need the water worse than we do as they have cities up there that have no water at all and is being trucked in. This could be the blessing we have been needing. Also will bring a lot of rain & snow thru out the midwest This message has been edited by phil2237 on 12-11-2014 at 09:21 AM |

Projections from the news last evening,,,,,said the Calif. rainfall from this storm will only raise the level of the lakes appox. 2% up-over current levels.... Still way short of needs......but better than drying up! |

For us Southerners, They base our water from the snowpack in the Sierras, And it looks like a lot of snow this year. Southern California has been lucky so far, we have no restrictions on water. Over the last 10 years, Southern California has been building storage areas for water, But Northern California did not, and has a lot of cities that have no water at all except what is brought in. We are suppose to get up to two inches. Now just remember, Most likely where you live, that is not a lot, but bear in mind, we do not have the sewer systems like most cities to handle this much in a short time. That is why there are lots of problems here when it rains hard. We are suppose to get down pours here by morning, we will see how things go. Our home is on the high end of the complex, so we normally don't have much problems here. Just on the news, Pacific Coast highway closed near San Fransisco, due to 25 foot waves covering the highway Also they are showing Homes that are right on the coast in Washington State are falling into the ocean. One hell of a storm up there. This message has been edited by phil2237 on 12-11-2014 at 07:27 PM |

What I saw on the news looks really bad. Too bad it isn't spread out a little more, over several days or a week. Hopefully everyone will be okay. |
