There was too much water for the roots to hold. I hope it can be rescued.

Snow levels went to a low elevation. This was taken from the park near my house.

Dramatic clouds in the the sunrise

This was taken from my school the first day back from vacation. I have never seen clouds like these.

Zone 7 truck

The guy in the Zone 7 vehicle offered me a job. He was out photographing the waters too. Zone 7 is Alameda County's flood control and water conservation agency. My camera lens kept getting wet in the rain even under my umbrella, so that is why there is a smudge in the upper part of the picture.

Water is almost up to the sidewalk

This is under the Hopyard overpass.

Compare this to a few days ago!

Note the difference in water level from the picture I posted a few days ago! I have never seen the canals this full.
