Insane amount of rain in the forecast

Wow.
 Quoting: Crunch62


The point of my former post with the metabunk link is that if you look at this forecast, the watershed is in yellow. You go the kink where the straight N-S CA-NV boundary takes an angle to the SE. Then go over about 1/3 of the way W to get to the dam, and the watershed is above it. It is yellow. I can't tell if it is 12 inches or 14 or what exactly, but that would be a full 24 hour day of runoff at 80,000 cfs they can't pass, for every single inch.

Now if the weather turns dry until Feb it can gradually empty. If, on the other hand, this is a weird and wacky grand solar minimum ultra wet season coming up, the dam is doomed, no question about it.

You all need to review this link:

[link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]

"The Great Flood of 1862 was the largest flood in the recorded history of Oregon, Nevada, and California, occurring from December 1861 to January 1862, caused by an ARkStorm.

The ARkStorm dumped an equivalent of 10 feet of rainfall in California, in the form of rain and snow, over a period of 43 days."

Please, review your preps and what food you depend on from central valley. That's almost all your produce and all your nuts. If you live in a risky place, be alert. Prayers for Crunch and anybody else that applies to. May God have mercy. We will see.

By the way that forecast is a total for the next two weeks. Roughly an inch a day. Winter has not even started.

Thank God Erin Mellon of DWR says the gates are fine and the spillway is fine. That God Juan Brown says we are all crazy. Nothing to worry about.

It's been years since I used to houseboat on Oroville, but we went every September for most of the 90's, and as I recall they let out more water than they have this year.

I could be wrong, but this lake is way more full than it should be this time of year. It should probably be somewhere around 700 feet. They're going into the rainy season.

Why is the outflow so low? Is that just one turbine? Is the power turned off all over so they are not making electricity? With this big storm forecast I'd think she'd be perking as close to 15,000 as they can go.

Probably 2 turbines going. Holding it at status quo.
Less demand this time of year for pumping water down south, which is what the Hyatt Power Plant electricity output is used for.

More rain forecast starting tomorrow and continuing for at least a week. We'll see who gets spooked.

It won't be me.

The cdec reporting inflow/outflow and elevation numbers are completely rigged.

It could almost serve as entertainment, if the potential outcome wasn't mass destruction.

The hidden from YOU the people <i>Chico-Almanor</i> fault is going to blow when Groda slips. Stress building up in Chico underground foothill pressure cooker for four decades. Cracking grinding popping fracturing. I can see it in my mind's eye. Can't you feel it? Injection extraction in Sutter's Butt. Twisting and plate bending from filling emptying Oroville naturally fracking the foothills.
