I hope the Guadalupe River gets full and washes away that trash, syringes, meth pipes, poop, and any undesirables out of there. Some of the homeless are just straight up disgusting and dont wanna go sober so they make a mess.
Looks like a creek to me, but that is a nuance and descriptive English. Forty two years of experience is good; however, that does not make it accurate under current conditions. The constant evaluations are more important as nature changes and change is constant. Nothing wrong with sandbags and a plan for the unexpected..
Definitely a stream, creek, or drainage ditch. Hard pressed to call it a river. I hope Randy is never wrong giving his advice. He's one blocked stream away from angering the neighbors and even potentially getting sued. I wanted to sand bag, but Randy said it was going to be ok your Honor
It's a river! It actually has a run of Chinook Salmon and lots of wildlife turtles frogs bass carp bluegill sucker fish ( like you) ha ha American Pike Minnow and trash ! I worked on the ranger station at the bridge on those Terrazzo piece's of art
Remember a while back when city officials purposely flooded “the Jungle” homeless camp by filling then releasing water from Anderson dam at 100% which had never been done before in the history of that dam. I hope nobody got hurt because the city could be liable for a lot of money.
They can call it whatever they like but whenever a watershed drains into a narrow channel like this "river", the land to either side is going always be inundated when rains produce water faster than it can be absorbed. Personally, I choose not to live close to scenic waters like this. I have better things to do with my time besides monitoring rising waters and preparing to evacuate several times during every single wet winter.
For the most part the western portion of the US doesn't get a lot of rain, and what would be a creek on the East Coast or up Alaska way winds up being called a river. Terms like that are pretty dependent on the local environment, as silly as that may seem at times.
It's a river! It actually has a run of wild Steelhead and Chinook Salmon believe it or not and lot's of wildlife! Oh and Sturgeon and Stripped Bass too...and a ton of carp and trash!
@arthurgibbons7401: California has some of the largest storage systems in the world. But it still has a large population, a large and thirsty agricultural sector, and a semi desert environment with unreliable rainfall.

Why not just move to a safer area ? Example, in Atlanta, we KNOW where the flood areas are. We also know where “ tornado alley “ is. Et voil’a……choose in the beginning NOT to live in these areas.
@carolcole570: Pretty much everyplace in Cali is problematic due the topography, a wild rugged coast, lots of mountains with vast swaths of foothills and the "flat" areas are valleys and floodplains and "reclaimed" wetlands where the runoff from the mountains fills the rivers and other bodies of water between rainy seasons and droughts. The weather is amazing though...

River? Randy doesn't get out much. That's a stream, or drainage ditch where I come from.
once upon a time season flows would increase it dramatically and it had a good size flood plain...
Californians are special.

You mean the taxpayers will be liable?
Sounds like a lefty idea for sure. The "compassion " is all just a front.
must of been a slow week
I lived in the Bay Area for 65 years retired to Florida and we are getting everything California gets it's a crazy year and it's cold.

@@dpeasehead I wouldn't call the Guadalupe River scenic; runs through downtown San Jose.
@@kamuelalee LOL! They did show its "scenic side," such as it its, from the man's backyard.
It actually has a wild King Salmon run in it
@@EricUnderwood-v2x So I imagine that it is state or federally protected?
Thats a creek...jesus

If California would build some water storage facilities they could reduce their Drought problems.

I love you watching Californians freak out when it rains
He chose to live there, right in his back yard, too close, of course there will be times they overflow.
Stop building so close to the river
