Guess what time I'm due to walk to the bus to go into town and meet my friends for a Christmas get together?? Yep midday!!! I think we'll all be looking a bit bedraggled!!
Diabolical is the word that sums it up right now. Gutters are overflowing and so are the water butts which we have now left their taps open to drain away. Our bins ( which where emptied today) have taken on a life of their own and we've had to chase them down and secure them firmly. Luckily one of my lovely friends is now picking me up for our get together.
It's all clouded up and damp outside. I felt a few stray drops of rain while outside with Rags this morning but no real rain yet. 55°f high hopefully, a very soggy 66 !!
Atmospheric River round 2. Way too much rain so fast 2” expected today. Trees downed due to saturated soil. Landslides and power outages , flooding. School closures , roads blocked by flooding or trees blocking roadways. Today another nail biting day. Again blasted by debris due to high winds, 45mph now. Snow bunnies are happy lots of snow in the mountains but roads closed due to trees downed across roads and windy warnings on ski slopes.
