EMERGENCY EVACUATION ORDER ISSUED: Officials are anticipating a failure of the Auxiliary Spillway at Oroville Dam within the next 60 minutes. Residents of Oroville should evacuate in a northward direction, toward Chico. Other cities should follow the orders of their local law enforcement.

The Sacramento Bee quoted California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection spokesperson Mike Smith: “What they’re expecting is as much as 30 vertical feet of the top of the spillway could fail and could fail within one to two hours.
We don’t know how much water that means, but we do know that’s potentially 30 feet of depth of Lake Oroville.” Authorities said Sunday afternoon that they had increased the flow down the normal spillway to 100,000 cubic feet per second, despite the damage, to relieve pressure on the emergency spillway.

Next thing you know it'll rain frogs, a lice outbreak, swarm of flies, diseased livestock, people breaking out in boils, thunderstorms of hail and fire, locust infestation, darkness for 3 days, and all the first born sons will die.

Will be worse than that when it comes.

I read if it completely fails Oroville could be under 100 feet of water!!

Makes you wonder how long this dam has needed repairs, and whether or not efforts to repair it were either obstructed by environmentalists, or the funds were diverted to pressing social spending(aka spending on illegals).
Oh well, at least we know that the rich silicon valley billionaires are ready to open their pocketbooks! 5th largest economy!

Issue has been managed, they just had a press conference.
It didn't erode as fast as they had anticipated, and they opened the main spillway to drain the lake rapidly, as the concern was happening at the emergency spillway
