Charlie replied to the topic Oroville Dam Spillway Updates in the forum Weather Talk 9 years, 6 months ago
Even though they are still releasing a ton of water down the eroded spillway, Lake Oroville is now at 80% capacity (up from 79% yesterday) due to heavy rains throughout Northern California. Upstream reservoirs are also continuing to rise as water is withheld behind the dams… Antelope Lake is now at 110% capacity!
Though the extended still looks…[Read more]

These aren’t my photos, but they are so good I had to share. The California Department of Water Resources has a great album of images from the Oroville Dam.

Charlie started the topic Oroville Dam Spillway Updates in the forum Weather Talk 9 years, 6 months ago
This has been such a huge weather-related event, I don’t know why I’m just mentioning it now! I have a feeling that Oroville Dam will be in the news for much of this spring as runoff from the snowpack in the Sierras flows into Lake Oroville.
Here’s a recent blog of mine, and here’s a link to some incredible pictures taken by the California…[Read more]

As I’ve mentioned in some of my previous posts, this has been an exceptionally stormy winter for much of California. While these storms have been crucial in eliminating California’s drought, they have also […]

It’s because this is an emergency and they need funds immediately to prevent further damage. But I agree… infrastructure should be a priority. Hydroelectricity/dams have a surprisingly destructive and deadly history.

For those interested in making a site, I posted a very quick and dirty tutorial on how to get set up here. I plan to add more to it in the future, but if you are confused, it’s a good place to start.

Sara Robertson replied to the topic Weather Together Introductions 2017 in the forum Introductions 9 years, 6 months ago
Hi everyone. I’m Sara Robertson, and I am not a weather pro, but I love to observe the weather as a window into the natural world around us. I’ve lived in and traveled to many places in the world, and my memories are always studded with feelings about the weather: the cold gray drizzle of a Seattle December day; the scent of eucalyptus drifting…[Read more]

Charlie started the topic Cape Kiwanda 2/18/2017 in the forum Weather Photography 9 years, 6 months ago
I had the privilege of travelling to Pacific City on the Oregon Coast this weekend with my brother. Pacific City is right next to Cape Kiwanda, which along with Cape Meares and Cape Lookout, is part of the Three Capes Scenic Route along the Oregon Coast. Cape Kiwanda has beautiful sandstone cliffs and giant sand dunes, and the very tip of the cape…[Read more]

Charlie replied to the topic Extremely Wet February for the Pacific Northwest in the forum Weather Talk 9 years, 6 months ago
I was on the Oregon Coast (Pacific City, to be exact) this weekend with my brother and we experienced some extremely intense showers with hail and gusty winds. It’s amazing how much harder the rain often falls on the coast than further inland… the showers seem to lose a lot of their steam as they head over the coast range. However, that’s not to…[Read more]

Charlie replied to the topic Southern California Storm and Squall Line in the forum Weather Talk 9 years, 6 months ago
Yeah, at least not for now. It’s amazing how much more rain Northern California gets compared to Southern California. The National Drought Monitor still has some of SoCal under an “extreme drought” though.

I guess we don’t have to worry about California rainstorms missing the southern part of the state anymore, do we? 😛

Charlie replied to the topic Southern California Storm and Squall Line in the forum Weather Talk 9 years, 6 months ago
Wow… that almost reminds me of the big storm they had in February 1998… looks a little similar. I heard there were 75+ mph winds with that squall BTW, lots of trees down throughout the area. Santa Barbara Airport picked up over 4″ of rain today and had to close due to flooding.

Amazing satellite loop today!

Here’s the radar from the Santa Ana Mountains (KSOX) about an hour ago. Look at that squall line ripping through SoCal!

Well, Southern California has its hands full tonight. The only thing they are missing is a tornado warning! Chris Scragg of Phoenix Weather Blog wrote a blog on this incoming storm. Looks like it is living up to the hype!
