When I was at lunch the news was showing a video of a Pine tree falling in the 
Santa Cruz mountains… google google
It’s posted several places online:
https://kmph.com/news/local/mudslide-causes-large-pine-tree-to-hit-the-ground-in-santa-cruz

I’m pretty certain that’s at the road closure about half a mile up the road 
from my house, probably taken from the intersection of Hwy 9 and Glen Arbor.

https://www.google.com/maps/@37.0776061,-122.0840329,3a,75y,46.09h,102.41t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sGNZP8PknEiJWsWnSvMAR3w!2e0!7i16384!8i8192

My apologies, the google monster says 0.8 miles.

I did spend some time after lunch on my drive home taking some photos, 
particularly down by the covered bridge in one  of the harder hit neighborhoods.

This is the kind of photo op you do't need to have . ugh!  Great shots, 
Larry - The first one in the set is the one that drives the story home 
the best to me..
I"m a weather channel watcher and have been thinking about you and other

Creek who

is not in such good shape health wise that hasn't answered my emails..

stay safe.

Re: Fun in the rain

I found out why I lost power, big tree took out power lines a few hundred yards 
from my house.  I posted photos to the Google album.

Re: Fun in the rain

[Godfrey DiGiorgi]

Glad to hear no redwoods through *your* roof, Larry. 

This photo made a little earlier this morning shows the momentary ray of sun 
against the still gray sky in Santa Clara. That's as good as its gotten in 
Santa Clara for four-five days now. 

https://www.flickr.com/gp/gdgphoto/U2Rcdk44FK

Happily, no flooding or power outages right around my neighborhood, but the 
wind a couple of nights ago did take down a tree on the corner of my street. 
That did some damage to the apartment building it fell into.

At least we'll have a bit of water in the reservoirs for a while…

Re: Fun in the rain

[Larry Colen]

Thanks Paul, Allan, Mike  Henk, Rick et. al.

Short update, last night’s big storm was really noisy for a while, but it din’t 
lst long, it seems to only have dropped 0.2” of rain.

But, I woke up to the power being out, yet again.  If you go to the PG outage 
map
https://pgealerts.alerts.pge.com/outagecenter/
and plug in my address,

7522 HIGHWAY 9 FELTON CA 95018

 it doesn’t look like I’ll be getting power again soon.  We’ve got some more 
weather coming  in this afternoon.

This morning Zab told me that one of her friends lost all of the redwoods in 
her fairy ring, taking out the water main to the house.  The good news is that 
only one of them hit the house, and only went through the roof in one place. If 
only one redwood hitting your house is good news, then you must live in the 
Santa Cruz Mountains.


Mike,
Yes the first one does seem to be duplicated, I’ll take care of that.  Flickr 
hiccupped the upload and I guess it resent it.

Re: Fun in the rain

[Godfrey DiGiorgi]

The Guadalupe River Bypass in downtown San Jose was built about a couple/three 
dozen years ago to prevent the occasional heavy rain years' swelling of the 
Guadalupe River and subsequent flooding of the surrounding neighborhoods. On a 
normal, dry, summer day the river is essentially a 6" deep, 8 foot wide trickle 
flowing through the channel 15 feet below and to the side of the bottom of the 
big concrete bypass structures, and the bottom of the Coleman Avenue Overpass 
that goes over the river is 30-40 feet above the level of the water. Saturday, 
the water line was 2 feet above the bottom of the bypass structure.

I haven't been down there to observe since, but on a similar rainy week a 
number of years ago, I saw the water level reach 2 feet from the top of the 
bypass structure and close to the bottom of the overpass… 

It's been raining a lot. Deepest darkest Santa Clara where I live (about four 
miles from that part of the Guadalupe River) is at an elevation of 90 feet so 
little flooding here so far, although the flood channels along the San Tomas 
and Cabrillo streams/river have more than double the usual depth of water in 
them. Larry lives in the Santa Cruz mountains about 25 miles to the south and 
west of me, on the western side of the slopes, which get a lot more rainfall 
than I do here in the south end of Santa Clara Valley.

Glad to see/hear you're OK so far.  Is your house set back from the 
river a little more than some of those on the other side?  Felton was 
specifically mentioned in articles on CA flooding in our local Milwaukee 
paper today.  Our son and his family live about 15 miles from SLO and

Very impressive situation. Good luck with the forthcoming storm.

Second pic appears to be a duplicate of the first.

Fun in the rain

[Larry Colen]

I actually did use my Pentaxes to get some photos of the weather fun we've been 
having.  I used my K-3 and 16-50 back on New Years Eve, then mostly played with 
my Irix 11/4 today after last night's rains.  The funny thing is that I had 
taken a fair number of photos before I realized that I had put it on my K-3 
rather than my K-1, so I went back, swapped bodies (I often wish I could do 
that with my own body) and then got some real wide angle photos.  

If a few of the photos you can see my home made depth gauge.  The photos at the 
end of the set show the river after it had dropped to 16 feet, a little deeper 
than it got on the 31st.  At its deepest this morning I think it was a bit over 
18' deep.  
Granted, that's 18' over the portion of the river bed that is usually not under 
water, the normal channel is maybe 1/3-1/2  as wide as it is when it goes cliff 
to cliff.

Like a fool, I figured that today was going to be nice and dry, and while they 
need to do some work on 17 on the side heading home, they'll be long done with 
that before I need to go home.  It turns out they finished a bit before 10PM, I 
had to take some back roads, with mud from slides, missing pavement, and some 
trees here and there, but I got home even it took me an hour and 15 minutes 
rather than 45. 

We're supposed to get another nice big storm tonight, and I'm planning on 
working from home tomorrow.
