NOW WE’RE GOING BACK EIGHT DAYS BECAUSE THAT’S HOW MANY DAYS IN A ROW WE HAD. MEASURABLE RAINFALL. SO IN SACRAMENTO IT ENDED UP NOT AMOUNTING TO MUCH. GRAND TOTAL OVER THE COURSE OF EIGHT DAYS A LITTLE LESS THAN TWO INCHES. BUT BLUE CANYON, THAT IS A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT STORY. IN FACT, OVER EIGHT DAYS WE’RE TALKING 18.5IN OF RAINFALL IN EIGHT DAYS. ALL RIGHT, SO LET’S TALK ABOUT THE SKI RESORTS BECAUSE WE KNOW THEY ARE SUPER HAPPY ABOUT ALL THE SNOW THAT HAS COME DOWN.
