Yeah Brew, we're still going to have flood issues, especially in the areas that there were fires. There is still 5 feet of snow pack on one of the mountains that completely burned (Dollar Ridge). Luckily the fire by me was put out pretty quick, and we shouldn't have any flooding here. This winter keeps getting compared with 1983's winter, which did flood. I remember going downtown and seeing streets that were sandbagged to make a path for the water. Not nearly the snow pack we had back then, but the fact we're coming off of fires makes it worse. Last I heard was 140% runoff, so hopefully we are better prepared this time around.

This was when I was 7 years old... seems like it was just 10 years ago... Wow.

I'm a little perturbed... Amazon has been saying for a month that the new Aaron Lewis album was going to be released today. Now it says tomorrow. This is the first time I've been antsy about a country album, LOL.

Usually I'm 100% metal head.

That a lot of rain, 850" of snow in the mountains ? I didn't realize that was possible in the states.

Haha yes, I was still in high school in 83. Doesn't seem like that long ago. Had a 78 f150 on 36's lol. Actually , I couldn't of had the 78 yet. I was still driven a the 75 farm truck during school, that was a 250. Dad and I put a 390 in it.

A little disturbing?! You should have heard the people on the news trying to describe it without showing emotion.
