Severe Weather - Erosion and Flood Control

Just a quick post to let you know: It's raining.

And it's raining hard. According to the NOAA, The Navaro river is expected to flood by this evening, we can expect 6-12 inches of accumulated snow between 2000-3000 feet, and 1-2 feet above 3000ft. Here in Ukiah, the streets are wet, the puddles are deep and we are all hoping for the rain to fall as heavily as possible without causing damage to low lying areas.

We have thousands of nylon and burlap sandbags ready to go, and our friends over at Granite construction are operating a fill station at their landscape supply center just down the road at 900 Talmage.We also have wattles and erosion blankets available if needed.

For up to the minute NOAA weather updates, go to www.noaa.gov. For community status updates, listen to KZYX&Z, 91.5, 90.7 and 88.1 FM.

Try to stay high and dry today, everybody!
