Here is one of the seven creeks of Burlingame just before sundown today.  It flows right past little Heritage Park at Ralston and Occidental.  I definitely seen this creek with more water, but right now any water is welcome.

And the Hetch Hetchy water chart shows a flattening out of the decline here.

Keep coming!

    It is wonderful to hear the creeks moving!
    I would like to acknowledge our city for the good care they take of the creeks and the trees – thanks to thoughtful pruning we made it through the last storm with no huge issues!

    The data doesn’t make any sense taking a look at just a week. Here’s a four year look at the data, I’m guessing the summertime peak is due to snowpack melt:
