Yeah, that might be true if snow were normal but they 163 percent of what they usually get for the year and it's bigger than the snowpack was in 2017.

If there was a big enough quake that could shake region up. I wonder if there could be any kind of liquefaction take place in the dam seeing in how it's landfill but also definitely getting seepage in it? I know part of it is concrete but it's still earthen dam.

If they can't anymore than they are right it's going to overflow in 2 to 3 weeks with just the snowmelt.
