Re: Possible "ARKstorm" heading towards California and the Sierra

“The ARKstorm was what would be predicted as a major rainfall event that would consist of a lot of snowfall in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, followed by a tropical air mass that melts all the snow.

Such a scenario might actually be coming, with the first round hitting on Wednesday, then Thursday into Friday, another on Saturday, and then lasting through Sunday as well. A full five days worth of heavy rainfall in Northern and Central California...”

Isn't this kind of storm like the one that caused all the flooding in the valley before?

This is the same type of storm that caused the 97 flood. The difference this year is that there is very little snowpack to melt. There was a couple of big snowstorms followed by the rain in 97.

Great, maybe badger will be able to open in Dec. this year.
