Back to back storms are slamming into California's coast, dumping copious amounts of much needed rainfall. Farmers are to be seen standing in the rain with mouths agape, swallowing as much as they can, quenching their thirst. This on top of substantial amounts of roast turkey from Thursday.
Forecasters predict 3"-5" of rainfall by next Wednesday. This amount will flow directly into the state's reservoirs, raising levels from near zero.
Farmers and ranchers are adapting planting schedules for next spring. Consumers across the state can only hope the winter continues to return to normal levels of rain and snowfall.
Ski resorts may not get all they want this week, but it does extend the storm door opening well into December, a critical month for storage of snowpack.
