Weather: well, we wouldn't have minded the snow at all. We like to have it on the Sierras, being as that's the best place we've got to keep it. Feeding streams.
Around here, a lot of it's aquifers. In my town, we have to maintain against seawater incursion, as all our local aquifers have their feet in the ocean; we need to have enough fresh water dumped in at the top end. We have a reverse-osmosis desalination plant to help with that.
Weather: we recently had an attack of high wind, with several brush fires started. All are now contained or out, with minimal casualty to human things.
