We did catch up with one man who was up in the bold creek area. He says the rain a couple hours ago did not disappoint. I was expectening note as much rain as we go. I was up in bolder creek about two hours ago and it poured, hard, and hailed. So i was a little surprised at that. Kind of came out of no where. Now, so far the only reports of any damage we have from bolder creek are a tree cutting power to about is hundred people. That happened earlier in the day, so it is not clear if it was directly related to this storm or if it was from yesterdays storm.

Reporter against all odds, Obama Administration has squeaked out a victory. 7. 1 million americans have now signed up for insurance plans. In spite of six months worth of website problems and negative press, the white house beat us enrollment target of 7 million, thanks to an unexpected last minute rush that overwhelmed Exchange Sites by covered california. Californians make up more than 1. 2 million of the 7 million enrollees nationwide. But keep in mind, an estimated 1. 5 had their plans canceled when the Affordable Care act rolled out. So it is still unclear how many were previously uninsured. It is also unclear how many have actually been able to find a new doctor in spite of the promise that they wouldnt have to. If you like your doctor or c keep your own doctor. But as we have been reporting, not only are many unable to keep their trouble makers, they cant their own doctors, they cant even find one. The only doctors accepting new patients are urgent care clinics. Of today, the number one complaint is doctors not taking aca. It seems clear the end of opening statement. Ecl rollment doesnt necessarily mark tepid of the health care hurdle. This is not what we were promised. That 7 million total does not include last minute enrollees. So many people rushed to enroll here yesterday, the Exchange Site crashed. Enrollment has now been unofficially extended through april 15th.
