Well I guess that summer has officially arrived here. It was 97 yesterday and is supposed to be in the upper 90s for a few days before heading into the triple digits. Bad for the fire season as all the rain has really made the manzanita and other underbrush grow like crazy and that stuff dries out to tinder dry in a day or so of heat.
On the good side the lake is full and they decided that instead of lowering the drum gates and storing that extra 20'of water they would lower the lake about 2' by running two more generators and that would give them room for the snow run off. I believe they still had 25' of snow on the highway through Lassen Park a week ago. Said it wouldn't be open for another tow or three weeks.
