Today's jetstream diagram reminds me of either rodeo or some scene from a 1950's black and white Western shoot-'em-up. It's rip snortin' and rarin' to go! It's been quite a long time since I've seen anything this shredded in the jetstream. Heck, it might even be Jetstream Triage! Where do you look first to analyze and "treat" the situation? 
Meanwhile, a glance at the water vapor situation this morning says that we're still on tap for a few more waves of water to wash ashore. The Western Pacific shows that is is attempting to reconnect its firehose the Phillipino hydrant. If we get that subtropical connection going again, WHAA--WHOOO!!!!NORCAL is getting smacked hard as we write this, high winds, rain, snow, the whole buffet of winter jingo and major lingo. Ironically, it's NORCAL that shows up the "reddest" in gubmint's drought diagram. This type of action almost certainly will alleviate the severity of that situation.
To see it unfold, if you're interested in such stuff on a lazy Saturday morning, here's what I would recommend. First, click on the National warning map at left. Then click into one of the little colored areas up in NORCAL. Have fun reading about all the mayhem. Then start Googling various community newspapers and TV stations in that region. That should keep you entertained at least until lunch time.
