6400 cfs
6510 cfs
2270 cfs
These are my irresistible numbers. CFS refers to cubic feet per second, which are the units of discharge, the amount of water in a river passing a given point in one second. The first number above is the discharge of the Merced River in Yosemite Valley as of 8:00 AM this morning. The second number is the record discharge rate for the Merced River ever on this date. The third number is the normal discharge for the Merced on this date. Oh, and they opened up Glacier Point last week.
Well, heck. The lawns, the garage, the grant, the website will all be there when I get back...

... and so will the painful Achilles tendon, but more so! Remember to ice it down later cuz I know you are not going to resist those numbers.
How about Colorado River at 30,000 cfs versus pre-dam at 85,000 cfs plus.
All the other stuff can wait for sure.
