Lots of rain makes for a flowing San Francisquito Creek

It seemed all of Menlo — well, at least those in adjacent neighborhoods — had the same idea: Let’s check out how much water is flowing in San Francisquito Creek under the San Mateo pedestrian/bike bridge. The verdict — a lot!

InMenlo weather watcher Dennis Nugent updated his tally from yesterday — 0.17″. As of today at 3:30 pm, his gauge showed 0.36″of rain had fallen since midnight, bringing the year to date total to 12.39″.

Last year 1.12″ had fallen as of December 26.
