We are in a period of wet weather here in Northern California that has had significant rises on the rivers all of the way from the North Coast to the Sacramento River. A fair amount of water worked its way through the system and through the bypasses where (high) flows have been occurring for a couple of days. Storms have been coming as expected. Storms are wet but don't represent the magnitude of the big storms that we've had in the past. Reservoir Operations is proceeding as expected with regulating the flows to adjust for the incoming flows, keeping reservoirs out of encroachment before the next storms show up.

A liberal is a person who believes that water can be made to run uphill. A conservative is someone who believes everybody should pay for his water. I'm somewhere in between: I believe water should be free, but that water flows downhill.

There are other areas where Congress can look to control costs and expenses. It's not necessarily quid-pro-quo that the money will come out of other coastal or water projects.

Anthony Pratt (1937-)

These are the highest flows that we've seen in the Carrot River system since '72, '74, and '79. We're closing in on some of those high flows.

We have had a great deal of precipitation, but the variable warming and cooling trends has made it so some of the snow has melted, so we have already had some fairly high peaks in the water flows.
