Do you remember last March, when I used the word "biblical"?

Well, it is going to get wet.  Real wet.  Today's brief reprieve should not fool anyone.  That jet is finally going to dip south, ride up on over us, and valet in the wave train that has been slamming BC all season. For better or for worse, it is now our turn.  Get out those wellies, slickers and brellas.  And if you plan to head for the snow, bring a shovel (and a ton of other supplies), cause your gonna be digging.

Get ready for a cake battering.  Only rocks showing in a few days will be the pinnacles.

First wave will come upon us this evening and build through the day Tuesday.  Pretty much non stop rain through mid day Friday.  For details on the snow, check out here or here.  But it is going to pile up.  Rain could be failing around the Tahoe base resorts ('cept Rose and Vailwood), especially on Thursday.  Cold piles in Friday and drops freezing levels down below 5500K.  And to be honest, it does not look like things will let up much through the weekend.  There is talk of it being a 100" week in the Sierra.  There is talk of maybe another one behind it.  We could easily see our annual snow fall double next week.  And perhaps triple by month's end.  Miracle March is a saying hello.

Down here, well over an inch of rain through Friday in the Cruz.  That means the local hills will be expecting 2 plus in certain spots.  Marin is looking at 2 or more inches.  And a 7 inch moisture plum runs from the OR/CA border to Lake Tahoe.  Things drop of quickly as you head south.  Big Sur is looking at just about a half inch.  This is a NorCal event for sure.  More on short term details (like quick periods of rain breaks to get out and enjoy some fresh air) and long term notes soon.
