re: Largest Dam in the Country at risk to fail EDIT- no immediate danger

Officials are basically saying the show is over. Backed down the spillway from 100k cf/s to 90k cf/s. Lake has been drained from 901' at the peak flooding to 868ft currently. I guess they are confident the rain and show won't be severe enough for the OH shite response again

So it's still a non event? Looks to be getting a lot of rain today in cali

Bump. Looks like it's heating back up with 10+ inches of rain expected. Absolute shite show.

Yikes. That's approaching criminal negligence.

WTF, how the hell can you simply proclaim this? Do you actually know any of the facts in the case at all? What a jackass.

if its really 10+. they may not be able to empty the dam fast enough to avoid over topping. its down about 50 feet from the worst of it. They have about 18 hours more before it starts in earnest.

when it nearly topped, the depth had risen 200 feet in a week.

Well, grab you cocks, you'd be blown away with the paucity of data we have to build offshore structures with.

My old mentor explained to me that when he started designing offshore it was simple stuff. Now the platforms have to be designed for atmospheric reentry.

meh, it's just bmy--par for course. He is always looking to blame someone else for failures, whether it be college football losses (the refs), or the Dems loss, or a dam, or just about any other failure in his life.

Climate change is a major cause of this - the erratic weather. Also, the government tries to geoengineer our way out of drought conditions and this is exactly what happens.

We have had unprecedented unpredictable weather the last decade and we all know why.

This said, the spillway water going outside what's left of the concrete isn't going to cause the dam to fail.

Wow, no need for a personal attack. I read about this far more than most. Geoengineering is a fact and this isn't like the 30's. It is all very sketchy stuff and you cannot dispute this.

Dude...Please take a long hard look at the climate data from any period other than 1975-2016

I promise you, you will find similarities. Hell, do you even realize that while yes we have been warmer than most years the last few, that we are still SEVERAL degrees cooler than the ALL TIME warmest on record???

So you're saying the govt started geo-engineering in the 30s, took a break since, and started again in the 2000s?

come the frick on...there is NO concrete proof to geo-engineering and you're basing your claims off of shite you've read...
