I've got the absolute CRAZIEST thing going on with my #Linux workstation right now. (#LinuxMint 22.1 Xia)

I am
#hearing #WATER like waves crashing ashore every 10-15 minutes. It's a #short clip, 3? Maybe 4 seconds long?

I seriously wonder if I've got malware (unlikely though - I only install software from reputable sources). Not to mention I've never heard of malware that plays an audio file every 10-15 minutes of fucking

The predictions and news are bad for the Rio Grande Valley and Albuquerque. (Also Las Cruces)

As John Fleck says "We will learn a great deal this year."

=========================================

We are heading into a remarkable year on New Mexico’s Middle Rio Grande. Here are some critical factors:

1. The preliminary April 1 forecast from the NRCS is for 27 percent of median April – July runoff at Otowi, the key measurement gage for New Mexico’s Middle Rio Grande.

2. Current reservoir storage above us is basically nothing.

3. Reclamation’s most recent forecast model runs suggest flow through Albuquerque peaked in February. It usually peaks in May.
