We don't often think about the infrastructure that's built to ensure that people can go about living their lives as normally as possible. This was a reminder that there are people who manage reservoirs of water and that they care about the weather way more than I do.
> A strong El Nino is the enemy of Northwest mountain snows.  But this enemy has only months to live. Wise reservoir managers understand that in such El Nino years, they must store as much water as possible during the rainy season. The managers of the City of Seattle reservoir system are some of the wise ones-- Seattle's reservoirs are now well above normal!
