Nope, I would prefer that to a Nor Cal winter anyday... Sometimes it gets like Seattle up here(don't tell anyone I said Seattle). It rains for like 2 weeks, and rains like 5 inches, so no flash flooding, just regular flooding. I'm kinda liking this drought, I hope it lasts a few more years....they close down the OHV park(the good wheeling spots) when it rains, and they only closed it once, for three days last year, and that was because they did a controlled burn on some of the dry grassy meadows that people like to park their red hot cats on in the summer.
