Wow Skip ! Very serious stuff ! As far as I know, we got lucky here in Inverness- I have not heard of any real damage, or road closures, despite 6" of rain.

Photo of the Pale Blue Dot, center right, taken from the outer solar system by Voyager 1 in 1990. Today, our rock starts another orbit around its parent star for ~the 5 billionth time, spinning over 350 times each circumnavigation. Happy New Year and Good Sailing to all the inhabitants of the rock we call Earth. ~sleddog, George and Robert, and all the enclave here at CBC.
Thanks, Skip! Happy New Year 2023 to you, too. I write from that Pale Blue Dot, in north Oakland. Leave it to you, to put us all into perspective.
Here's my view, from north Oakland, with the Oakland Children's Hospital peaking over the rooftops in the distance. I wish you all the best in the coming year, and look forward to seeing all my sailing friends in the coming months.

The rainclouds are hiding the mountains in the distance. Snow is prevalent above 5,000 feet (we are 2,500 feet elevation). However, a nice New Year’s drive up the river into the mountains showed gorgeous clouds, glistening rocks and trees, a good dump of boulders onto the roadway. The plow is used for rocks more than snow.
Happy New Year to All!

Super nice that you got to go sailing today Bob !I was BSing with fellow 110ers at the IYC Gin Fizz party. I am proud that my father was Navigator of Voyager I . It is still going and sending back data from deep space.
It only takes the last three digits to reach the next big number.
Gotta post!
Maybe, maybe

553 more - but who is counting.
