So not a fun job, i.e. Oroville OverLord. Just think of he/she when you're getting Kind of Blue. Miles of problems for them. Whether the weather goes all rain or no rain, there's no 'So What' for them. Only hope for it to go Blue to Green so it isn't All Blues.

Upside: while it's dry the spillway is being repaired.
Downside: it may not be necessary

have been over that bridge.

nothing like that but did have a tie-rod come off while crossing a bridge over a river. high bridge/deep water. manage to get across (steering wheel only worked moving to the left), stopped, discovered the tie-rod hanging free. gee. that could have been hazardous.

a guy working with drove us off a 10' cliff. no damage to the truck or us. other than getting hit in the neck with the cab roof, and swearing at him for not wearing his glasses...it turn out okay.
