Not good here… Uvalde has had close to 30“ of rain in the last 72 hours…. The same area that got hit by floods last 4th that killed over 100 kids in summer camps got hit again, thankfully the Camps took it seriously and no issues report yet… further up another river might be breaking it floor stage record from 1979 … some of these rivers are seeing double peaks because of where and when the rain is falling…. we needed the rain but not like this….

It's called 'lack of water'. Back then, plenty of snow, which was stored in the Sierra Mountains. When warm weather came, snows melted and ergo the rivers ran high. Able to be stored, and used. Not so much today. The 5 is full of dried up trees, stone fruit, nuts whatever, because the farms west of the 99 don't have enough water allocation. It was very pretty, once upon a time. California would rather spend tens of billions on a train from Bakersfield to Merced (ps, not a single rail of track laid to date), instead of dams to hold that water for sustained release. And older timers than I have told tales of boats that sailed down the middle of the state from San Francisco, on the waterways.
