HI all,
mandatory evacuations are being instituted for Oroville, Marysville, Yuba city, Gridley, and many other smaller towns downstream
If we have any folks in the area who need space on high ground, or who can offer space, shout out!!

WTF. Hope everyone gets out safe. Mother Nature is a fierce mistress, especially when men have altered her flow. The settled people need to drink and desire electricity, but they need to own the Faustian Bargain. Thx for the post.

signing out for the night...if anyone needs, pm me here or FB and I'll get a notification, I think. A little slower, but I'll get it and contact you.
good luck, to anyone in the "danger zone"

Small spare room and plenty of parking in Clearlake, Lake County -- west of I-5. Plus sofa-bed. Plus several bunks in my bus.
"Low-rent" conditions, but....
Send PM. I will check every couple hours or more often 24/7 for the time being.

You guys are awesome & embody the true Burner spirit. I think you score a direct hit on at least 3 of the principals. It's like an unwritten 11th principal "Take care of your Burner Brothers & Sisters". But I know it goes beyond that. Thanks for being you.
