The question is... will it STOP at 5.8 after we put on??

Glad to see the Robe Watch is alive n well. If all goes well I may be back in the Seattle zone to hit up some Robelicious when the rains hit.

And there's no harm in a false alarm as far as the Robe Watch goes- ain't like callin 911 or nothin.
Ain't like no boy who cried wolf or nothin

Hell, if three rain drops hit the upside down haul of my boat while it sat in my yard (assuming I had a yard) I would consider it worthy grounds to activate the Robe Watch.

Well done.

Moving this thread to the top of the list, these lame religious debate threads have derailed and hijacked this site.  
 
Robe will be in tomorrow and I plan on being there to mingle with the old man.   Any others out there miss old man Robe?    Call in sick,  call in a miracle, heck,  ask god if its ok if you paddle and ditch your responsibilities,  you will likely go to hell, but i'm pretty sure it will be worth it.

Robe was sweet today, no new wood in play that I could see.  Level was just under 6ft when we put on, 5.85 at the stick at the end.     Going back again tomorrow afternoon if anyone is interested.

Not in the cards for me this weekend, maybe if it miraculously comes in early saturday morning (not likely at all).

I'm watching though. Watching and waiting. Been away from the Robe for way too long...

Just in case it does somehow, I'm going to be available for Robe on saturday. Not sunday though. Got other plans. But Sunday/Monday is probably when Robe will be in, if at all.

Yo I am. Just sent out the 'ol "level favs" to the 41411, and it said 5.3'and droppin. But then again the graph shows it shootin straight up through the roof. Either way, sooner is prolly better. But noon at take out would do.

Sky came up too. I think it's a combo of higher elevation rain and snowmelt. I talked to someone in the area who said it was raining lightly on NF Stilly, but had stopped several hours ago.
