Since we moved to central CA, this Phal has been sprouting roots like crazy. Looks happy. Should I report soon? (Pics attached)

You can repot Phals. at any time, even in flower. You don't need to until the old medium is breaking down. I can only see the bark on top, which looks good. How long since it was last repotted?

For aesthetic reasons you might want more of the roots in the medium, but the plant doesn't care.

Good leaf count. This looks like one you’ve had for a while.

It looks great from the pictures. When those roots starting get long enough, I’d encourage sind If them to grow down into the bark.
