10:30 PM. So far, just under six inches.

I'm drying my boots for the morrow. I'll oil 'em before I go out chainsaw and shovel in hand, making finer adjustments to the drainage (yup, I use a fair amount of wood to slow the water down).

I think that we are over 6 inches. It has rained continually since mid morning.

Downtown Napa is on a flood watch at this moment inspite massive amounts of money spent to prevent this.

The good news is the lack of high tides now. They will happen tomorrow morning about 10 am.

We are up on the east hills. If we get flooded by the Napa River, you guys are in trouble too. We have the age old problem of being about mid hill. So a lot of water comes rushing down the hill. If your French Drains and special creek lanes don't work, you can be in real trouble. So far all have worked.

Stay safe Carry and Tubebender stay dry!
