Don't know if you've been watching the news, they said last night were due here in the valley for basically 7 days of rain! They are thinking more rain than el niño winter, most countys are offering sandbags at the local co yards and fire houses....

If anyone needs help prepareing for the water please let me know !

I may need to do something about my pool if it rains that much. I am off work between today (friday) and the 7th. Willing to also help anyone that needs to keep thier junk dry.

My Mudholes are pretty full but nothing running in the ditches, yet.

I think this is the earliest the back pond has been almost full.

Lol woke up this morning my front pond is pretty full too, oh that's right I didn't have a pond! s*** ! I hav a Hugh puddle about 80 feet long 20 feet wide in the drive way to the side gate for back yard... Good thing it's going away from the house.



Dan you get the trucks and tractor un stuck yet

Spent about an hour and a half digging drainage for the back yard. It's ankle deep and bleeding over into the neighbors. The pool may overflow by Tues eve at this rate.

Pool has about and inch and a half before it is spilling the yard. Storm is supposed to stall here until Wednesday. May need to throw a pump in and drain it into the gutters which are also flooded.

 

[D'Animal]

My spillway has had water flowing in it since sat afternoon.

[Dusty]

Should we start looting yet?

 

[D'Animal]

Not much to loot under the bridges.

Well I guess the river behind Rusty's parents house is flooding. It's out here off of 198 and 210. He might need some help later. I think they are going to try and get some sand bags and he was talking about maybe renting a backhoe to dig a "moat" around the house! Will keep you posted.

 

[hudyhue]

Let us know... Well get it done quick with a few of us out there.... Get bags at county yard

 

[CookRunner95]

That would be great. He said it's pretty bad. Could you give rusty a call 559-804-5475

 

[D'Animal]

Maybe we have a SandBagging Event instead of a Snow Run? Just a thought.


Sand Bags and Sand are located at the Fire Station in Lemon Cove. I think it will be closer than Visalia.

 

[CookRunner95]

Yah we got some. They only give 20 at a time though. It's pretty much under control now. Who knows in 3 days....

 

[D'Animal]

There is suppose to be a break in the weather on friday and then storm #2 hits sometime saturday and there is storm # 3 behind it.

 

[hudyhue]

So a few of us roll up in toys get our 20 bag limit ea and get em placed ....
