Just drove back from Joshua Tree. When I passed the Whitewater exit on I-10, I was able to get a quick glance out the window. The River was really flowing. More than I have ever seen it flow. I was not able to get off and explore. I especially wonder what it was like over where the road crosses the River.
I don’t know why it was flowing so hard, but on CA-62 in the Morengo Valley there were many signs about flooding due to wildfires and it did rain up there yesterday and lightly this morning.
The clouds were glorious. I will post photos and text on another date.
