I'm not sure how to read this. Is that table inch per hour? For how long?

That table would be totals from the storm I believe. Regardless the amounts needed to not only fill the lakes and reservoirs then to start building up the ground water tables... now that would require a truly biblical storm.

If it rains that much in one storm, most of the water will run off without soaking into the ground Sad

They tend to be a bit over the top in their predictions. It usually doesn't measure up to how much rain they say it is going to drop. Just like when they say the waves are going to be 10-15' over here, they are usually about 6'!

We had a record amount of snow up here in Washington in the Cascade mountains. 193 inches worth for December. Thats 16 feet of snow. Not gonna be a drought here in Washington next year.

Accuweather still says sunshine for A1, though they do show rain leading up to it. Better leave the tarp on till Saturday morning. I imagine when they do pull it off there will be mud on the bottoms of the jumps.

These tabloid style headlines are hilarious. I'm quite positive it took more than 3-5 inches of rain to flood the earth. Grinning

Lol. Still, might be just enough to dampen this type of humor

Whether it's next weekend or the following few I think it's a pretty good bet that California will see at least 1 maybe 2 mudders.
