You can cut and paste that into excel - cool.  I summed up current storage and last year's storage and got 11,666,979 and 9,417,927, respectively, which is 24% better off than last year.  It's still low, but markedly improved.

Just wait til the end of next week!   

 

  Anyone driven by Lexington after this storm,lately? Just curious?  It's always nice to see it full (Even though we CAN'T friggin use it!)

Drive by Lexington every day.  It's coming up but, it is still far from full.  I hear you on the not being able to use it.  It upsets me greatly ,that a lake 15 min. from my house is off limits to kayaking.  I dont know if you remember but we used to be able to water ski in Lexington in the 80's.  Than it became odd days ski, even days no. Than it became electric only and now it is only permisible for the Los Gatos Crew club.  Rights stripped from us!  I saw it happen.

 Yeah I remember then.   I recll seeing big block V8'd boats racing across on the occasional trip we did did over the hill.

You cant use Lexington?  when did that happen. I am so glad i move out of San Jose in 92. I remmember the days in the 80's when the line to launch on a hot day had cars with boats lined up all the way on to the freeway turnoff.

Oh well calif as a state has gone insane anyway, this is just one more example.

 

    Sometime last year after they completed the work on the water outlet tunnel.  I didn't belive it when I heard it so I called Santa Clara parks and lady ranger spelled it out nicely.  Citation will be issued if caught on the water.  Apparently she was a kayaker also and wasn't happy with decision either.  Oh well.
  The bank is still available......

just about every lake in SC County is off limits...How the hell can I get a planter trout, dink bass, slab crappie, and catfish points for AOTY within 30 min of my house!!!

Calero, Anderson, and Coyote are open, with inspections!  Stevens creek opens around spring/summer I think. 

Cost me 32$ for two kayaks to be inspected, parking, and launch fee at Calero this last Sunday.  AND I was skunked!!!

 

  It's friggin Government sanctioned leaglized robbery I tell you! Collecting fees for inspections that in the long run will fail.  If those little bastards want in to whatever body of water they happen to be close to, there gonna get into it regardless of inspections or human interactions!
