Oroville Dam's Recently Reconstructed Main Spillway Fundamentally Flawed Looks like a medium storm this coming weekend and then a massive ridge of high pressure bringing dry and warm conditions through the western states. Bummer..... Quoting: #Geomagnetic_Storm# DRY AND WARM WINTER FORECAST FOR SOME AREAS... We really don’t need that here. Especially with Lake Oroville near empty and all the Reservoirs here will be almost empty at the end of next summer of no rain happens, but it’s not even winter yet. |

Oroville Dam's Recently Reconstructed Main Spillway Fundamentally Flawed I stopped following this for a few months, it's amazing to see what they've accomplished, they completely reshaped that hillside. Last time I saw it they were still doing the roller compacted concrete and filling the eroded areas, that was huge and they did it when the temperatures were over 100 degrees F, miserable work. I'm impressed with what they got done in such a short amount of time. |

Oroville Dam's Recently Reconstructed Main Spillway Fundamentally Flawed Looking like it's a dry winter for California. With the main concern now being the fires. Either way California is fucked. Wet winter and the Oroville dam is likely doomed. Dry winter and pretty much the whole state will likely be burned down next summer. |

Fills quickly if you stop for spillway repairs and whilst you stop the mass behind the wall grows like the blob. Government is a body largely ungoverned. |
