Still looking like winter here

Even wetter today, like 15+"s of rain & 2+ft of snow for a day
then delouse of rain like a cow pissing on a flatrock,
just in the past 3 weeks,
& I haven't even measured what we go overnight & today
even yet to add to that total, another 2"-4"s

just glad it isn't snowing right now, too warm,
because we'd be buried in it

our norm for a whole season is 41"s of measurable percipitation
the past few years it's doubled or tripled that like 120"s, of late
or even a couple years ago,
5 times that average, (just here) 110-120"s of rain, 25' of snow,
or 40'-ish (to 50'+) upcountry over 7,000ft, 20 mile up the mountain

& when the clouds broke for an hr or so, just the other day
I saw the tell-tell signs 'crosshatch patterns' in the skies above
of cloud seeding, still
(our rivers & lake are full/over full)
we aren't in any major flight path for it to be a bunch of
'jet vortices/vapor trails' BS
it's nucken' futs out here

Glad I'm at elevation 100'+ or more above any waterways or creeks
rain run off is bad enough, hell a small river off the hill besides me
just from weep holes in the retaining wall drainage
a lil' Sullivan Creek down the hill a tad, a couple hundred yards
is like 14' flow/rushing rapids,
it's normally like maybe a high of 3'
has not yet crested the banks, a couple fee to go
& a river, well 1" of one, going down the road/asphalt hill out front street
2"-3"s of flow by the edges

see that hill going up, this is normal for here

& we're in a draught :jackoff: if you listen to the mainstream News :blah:
this is a normal rain (below), it's 20 times that the past 3 or so weeks

sorry my camera was fogging up for current crap
this was 2023 below

Here's the photos of just now,
the rain has let up quite a bit
still warm, still raining light,
a bit of runoff down & from the side hill going across my driveway
not sure how good you can see it the street & driveway
just doesn't show up well on film,
it's an 1"+ to 2" deeps stream
coming off the easement & in-front of the driveway off the street/hill

if it was colder, it's be ice
unseasonably warm storm

thank God it's not ice or snow "yet"
but getting sick of it

people at lower elevation & not great drainage like I have
poor bastards
