Everyone is pretty excited to get a decent rain/snow at this time of year, especially since last winter was so dry, so, to see a system like this so early is hopeful, but we can not guarantee that it is going to continue through the rest of the winter.

When we get moderate to heavy rain over these recent burn scars, they can create ash or debris flows, what that means is mud, ash, and other debris such as trees, boulders and rocks can get picked up in a fast-moving flow( of water), and that can be really dangerous if people are caught in that.
