It hasn't yet, it's still going down.

The South and North forks of the American River.

All the Almond tree planting up here is sucking the lakes dry. Not sure that any amount of rain can keep them looking better than this. BYW, this is EVERY lake in NorCal, not just Folsom. Don Pedro is nearly empty. One of the reasons I threw the boat in storage at the end of August. Trees that had not been seen for 50+ years, since the lake was created, are just below the surface and punching holes in boats. Not willing to take that chance. We may be river people only next year, even if I have to drive all that way.

So where does the water go?
I know Lake Berryessa goes to Solano county, budweiser plant and shit.
I used to be amused that I was peeing in water that I drank.

Grads, With all that shallow water it looks like your gonna need to sell that Shockwave and get yourself a jet boat for next summer!

I meant to say Coors Light. Does that help?

Into aquaducts that feed into the various canals in the valley, as well as down to Socal...the amount of orchards going in is unbelievable down here. Literally everyone who can is ripping the land and planting almonds. Not peaches, not anything else, almonds. Flat land used for crops like carrots and such is being torn up and replanted. It's no surprise to me that we have this.
