Can you see the water spouting from a gopher hole at the beginning? Every gopher hole is a gusher right now... wonder how the gophers handle this?! 🤔

Looking E at #AtlasPeak in #Napa County today. 6" heavy, wet #snow. The most accumulation since 1974!
It's been *very* hard on the #trees, which have lots a lot of limbs. Especially the coast live #oaks.
I've talked with 3 people and heard:
- At least 1 tree-related car accident on Soda Cyn Rd
- 1 snapped power line
- 1 snapped fiber optic cable
- Report that 1974 snow event was colder, so snow was dry and not as damaging

@karlthefog so happy you're here!
Just came across this epic portrait of you circa 1980 from the top of #AtlasPeak in #Napa CA.
You haven't aged a day, what's your secret?

After a clear day, the leading edge of the next #AtmosphericRiver brought this showstopper of a #sunset. The SF Bay region is 10 years into a #drought, and we need every drop. Even the moisture in fog makes a difference!
Looking over #NapaValley from #AtlasPeak north of San Francisco in #California
