This past weekend, October 19 and 20th, an atmospheric river passed through the area, bringing a whole lotta rain and the attendant issues that accompany a whole lotta rain, like flooding and such.
Over both days I went through Lower Hume Park and the Central Valley Greenway that follows the trail next to the Brunette River, getting shots of local flooding and water, water everywhere.
I’ve collected the most interesting shots below.
For the record, I prefer my rain light.

A large temporary pond filled the field in Lower Hume Park, to the delight of local ducks.
Impassable trail as river water edges closer to the main trail.
The cul-de-sac at Lower Hume Park. I normally step between the gap in the bushes to take shots of the river.
The Brunette River breaching its banks.
More trees getting a bath as the river overflows its banks.
