As an indication that southern California was even wetter in the mountains, it was a good month for snow at Mammoth: 245.5 inches of snow. This was apparently the most ever in one month since the 1969-1970 season.
Before the deluge, I planted seeds (carrots, spinach, radish, arugula and peas) in my garden plot. Nothing showing up so far.
However, the violets are in bloom. These are volunteers. I don't know the species. Family: Violaceae. Viola sp.
The aloe is also in bloom. Family: Asphodelaceae. Aloe vera
