Sunday it is, and this is supposed to be a day of change as a new storm sweeps in to Northern California. It’s hard to imagine a storm after we enjoyed such a beautiful day on Saturday. First, there was a good training walk in the park early Saturday morning; afterwards we hurried back to Orland to attend another watercolor class. I’m learning…slowly. Then, after a quick lunch we went back to Chico and spent some time walking around downtown. No destination in mind, just strolling in the sun.
This new storm comes with a weather service flood warning for areas around streams and rivers. It’s supposed to be a warm storm with snow levels near 8,000 feet or higher. Then, on Wednesday…it changes to a cold storm with snow levels falling to near the valley floors. Yes, it’s still winter.
Speaking of floods…that subject has suddenly become a hot item for politicians. The newspapers have been filled with pictures of politicians standing on or near the levees. And getting “Face Time” on the evening news while droning on about how dedicated they are to the public safety. And where have these same politicians been during the past ten, twenty, thirty, forty years of neglect? Let’s see…is 2006 an election year?
