We should be fine. Levels have been drawn down for winter. These types of storms, while not an every wonter occurance—do happen if one lives on a long enough timneline to experience these types of things. No need for Climate Change Therapists around here.

Power out in many places. Including the repeater up on Sutter Buttes that covers a very wide area. Running off of battery power at the moment. Our little GMRS neighborhood radio watch repeater is workin g just fine. There will be localized flooding, some trees will be going down and many of us will loose power.

I have the generator staged ( just a little 2k job that runs off of propane) A ready light running off of one of my many outputs on my ham radio battery box Just a flip of the switch and voila—no fumbing for candles and matches...

There will be some that will be affected by trees going through their roof or flooding streets and what not. All in all a big winter storm up and down the state.
