STORM2K

These shot are from 2 p.m. PST, 2-22. Usually dry, it has been flowing more often than not this season. Today at peaked higher than I can remember at 1200 CFS.

Amazing...desert rat! Great pics...thanks for sharing...

Lake Arrowhead up by Big Bear has actually reached its peak and is overflowing...I hope our lakes and rivers stay flowing and high throughout the summer...its so nice to see water in these places...

Sure looks wet in death valley! I remember seeing pictures of all the wildflowers that blossomed after the 1998 el nino. I'm sure this spring will be no different.

Wow! There are going to be some bad fires this summer with all the new growth drying up, especially in the lower areas.

Wow... Lets not forget this pic posted just last month from that same locaton...

So I guess tthis year is a year of extremes in the hottest, driest location in the US this year

Record low temperature for Death Valley is 15 F set in January 1913. Record high temperature is 134F set in July 1913-how's that for a year of extremes

The Amargosa empties at the far southern end of the valley, begins north, in Nye County, NV, about 50 miles away as the crow flies. Makes a U turn going into DV. Sure has been an interesting winter.
