Some of it gets diverted to the Russian River, and that river needs it in the summer.

Very cool. Recently completed development of the groundwater sustainability plan for Eel River. Neat to see a picture of it rather than looking at it through Google Earth!

Every time I've been out and been bothered by the rain, I quickly stop myself and remember we need all the rain we can get.
EvLokadottr t1_izvsi4a wrote
And then flooding all of the farms that are alongside it, which can deposit some nice silt, though! Used to flood every year, anyway. Maybe not, now.
DocPeacock t1_izvsky4 wrote
The Sierras are supposed to be getting a couple feet of snow this week

Seeing this gives me some hope for our rivers down here in Mendocino.
goathill t1_izvzckl wrote
The Russian river doesn't need the water, but the vineyards, ranches, cannabis farmers and city of Santa Rosa sure need the water.
goathill t1_izvzfqg wrote
Out near willow creek we have been getting snow every other day for awhile now. The hilltops are all white and it's glorious

SF water comes entirely from Hetch Hetchy. However you feel about that, your post isn't remotely close to.reality.

I thought they were removing a bunch of those dams. Saw an article recently but didn't pay too close attention to which dams specifically were slated for removal.

I used to live along this river

I havent been out that way since October, but as someone that recently moved to Eureka from the Midwest, it makes me happy I don't have to drive too far to find snow

I know there is a huge dam removal project in Oregon, idk about California though. https://www.usgs.gov/centers/california-water-science-center/science/klamath-dam-removal-studies#overview
Edit: The river also flows through California so you’re right.
