The latest things are Yellowstone exploding, what to do if nukes drop, ice shelf melting and breaking away and asteroids coming...cycle of fear.

Don't blame the snow! Blame the incompetent, lazy-*** contractor that can't effectively, and safely do their job!

Never assume. I built it. I disassembled the walls and removed most of the studs. I put up chicken wire to get me to spring. The lack of studs and plywood weakened the structure and the weight of the snow crushed it. My fault. No lazy, or lying contractors involved. I intended to rebuild it all in the spring anyway when I remodel the corral and fence line. No big deal.

When I have a contractor to do work. If it's something I've done I say by the way I did this, just in case he wants to rip the work.

Hit 86 here today which is close to a record....but don't know that it is. Humidity is dropping finally but is supposed to be up again tomorrow when the front gets pushed back up towards the north.

5-7" is just another hard rain for the Houston area lol. Yeah, it's a lot if it comes down in a couple of hours but over 3-4, not that big of a deal. Sure some areas will flood some like underpasses etc but it's not a deal breaker.

We just had a Tornado warning here,
extremely rare here
a huge cell "allegedly over the whole county"
no/none sighted on the ground, just a bad weather system
it's still thunderin/rumbling like crazy, got a lil' hail, & lightning
if you were look up at the sky/clouds it doesn't look like anything
of any shape thunder clouds etc., barely grey skies

here
anything over an 1/2" a day here is a really good rain
up where I'm at a lot of times in the winter, it's snow
like 8"s of snow per "1 of rain, down below us
when it's the powdery stuff/corn snow
that wet crap 'Sierra Cement' wet stuff, like 4-5"s of snow
to an 1" of rain/water

 

[Budnicks]

Here in Tuolumne Co.
41"s is the average rainfall "for a whole year" for here
we are well over 110+"s this season alone rain
since Nov. last 130-ish days, 1/2 or more of that was/is snow days
16'-25' that's feet
(300"s this year) accumulated/combined totals here,
like 1" to 4" to sometimes an 18"s or more a day,
when it does snow
then melts off or rains on top of it
& repeats the cycle

Also we still have next spring & fall rains, to add to that total
this winter still isn't over either, it's like 268% + of normal
it's a once in a 40-50 years, storms/weather

1977 & like 1987-ish was the last time it was anything like this

has nothing to do with BS 'climate change'
or global warming nonsense, BS they feed the masses
it's a normal cycle we go thru & an El'Nino year to boot...
the Dbl wammy

I know other places get a shitload more

We get much more than 1/2" to a 1" a day
for any extended period of time, it floods in the valley
especially inner-shitty's
avalanches in the mountains, mudslides in the hills or on the coast

Cailf. isn't built like other states,
crapload of clay, hardpan or granite base up here
we actually have real, high mountains 7k to 13k-14k foot at some places
& very arid/dry low valley, some very low, at sea level or even below,
a crapload of rivers/streams/creeks everywhere
that tend to flood
(crappy leadership & poor water management)
& the low flatlands/farm/ranchlands,
the central valley, that feed 20% of the nation
crops, citrus & vegetables, beef pork meat/poultry in mostly rural areas,
some even in the shittys (like Foster Farms Atwater)
& we have 'them concrete/asphalt shitholes' by the coast,
that don't absorb any water
it just goes out/runs off to the ocean/bays,
with lil' to no retainment...

Where I'm at we don't have a draught,
that's a MSM/BS lie
we have a bad water management, some water goes south,
very lil' of ours
PG&E (Pacific Gas & Electric) owns most our water rights,
they have for almost 100+ years
many of our high mountain lakes are drained
to just water the lawns, inner-shittys in
San Jose, SF Water Dist. (Hetch Hatchy below Yosemite)
or Oakland-Easy Bay MUD, all in the Bay area
Sacramento/Stockton areas 'shitholes, they have their own',
the huge rivers, the Sacramento & Stanislaus Rivers
or the Cosumness (it is not damned)...

got caught up in all that in Mammoth Lakes. Never stopped snowing. Windshield didn’t like me cleaning the iced snow off And cracked good. Then 395 was closed due to flooding so toured Death Valley, Las Vegas and Hoover dam to get back to Phoenix

Don't let your homeowners insurance company see those stairs, they might cancel your policy.

 

[QuickBpBp]

We were supposed to have a big storm a Nor'Easter with some snow and then rain here in Pa. We got NOTHING but a run on supplies at the grocery store.. So it was a Big No'Easter..

Camp. That old Sears snow blower is the best 50 bucks I spent for up here! That and building the lift from **** I had around to make life so much easier 300 lbs of water coming up.
