California Governor Pat Brown was quoted as saying that a flood of similar proportions could "happen only once in 1,000 years," and it was often referred to later as the Thousand Year Flood.[1] =
And now we have the 1000 year drought. We can't say that mama doesn't like symmetry. ;-)

. Crossing the Bay Bridge, you could see a clearly defined river of mud coming from the Sacramento-San Joaquin.
No words....I can't begin to imagine it. Floods scare me actually.
Over at weatherwest.com one of the commenters mentioned a climate scientist, wish I'd recorded his name, that says that climate change follows a stair-case type pattern. Years of droughts followed by years of flooding---if true(as in if commenter was correct in quoting him) it puts the current rains in perspective.....I'll try to look up that comment although something tells me that you know who the guy is...

I'm a bit nervous about this upcoming storm. Sort of like preparing for a Nor'Easter.
