It's been pretty bad here, although I live on a hill next to a stream; we were OK, but the rain was intense.

It actually hit like 91 or 92 today in Lake Tahoe. 90° days in Tahoe are few and far between.

Unfortunately hot July days are getting hotter 🥵
Hopefully we won't go all the way through August without rain.

Water came from the Bell Labs hill and down to the sound barriers. It then poured THROUGH cracks in the barriers and onto the highway. The Jersey barriers stopped the water from going onto the eastbound lanes.

All traffic westbound traffic was stopped .
