This is part of a report on the Smith. Read the amounts of rain projected just this weekend!
River Overview: All North Coast rivers, under low flow restrictions remained closed. with the exception of the Smith and main stem Eel. That will change by the weekend but don't get too excited. We expect all rivers to be high and muddy the following week as a major storm (s) is expected to hit Northern California this weekend with more to follow next week. Rainfall amounts could top 20 inches (just this weekend) according to some of the weather models and river fishing will be out of the question.
20 Inches in one weekend just might break the back of the drought Nazis of the enviral Watermelon Jihadists.
One of my son's got a report that before tonight is over 7 to 8 states could be under heavy rain or snow depending on the elevations. Also, this might be the minor storm.
