  • Three-day atmospheric river clobbers Southern California with flash flooding, landslides, boulder falls, and mountain snow! Locations across the Los Angeles metro had big problems. Today, the threat will be from the cold upper low with heavy snow in the mountains and flash flood potential in the San Diego area. A tornado warning was issued in San Diego, yesterday.

    For those not familiar with the area...the Santa Ana river is typically contained to a small, 4 foot wide, 6 inch deep trough in the center of the river floor. That was an extremely unusual amount of water flowing down the river during the storm.

    4:23 - This is the mouth of San Juan Creek. It runs past San Juan Capistrano -- the place famous for swallows -- and dumps out at Dana Point. Reed's drone shows I-5 as it curves to follow the Pacific Coast all the way to Tijuana. San Juan Creek is usually not dry, but it is running high now.

    Could this be the beginning of a scenario of a mud flood event that many are researching that occurred in ancient times? This crazy flooding has been happening all over our country and also worldwide. We all know, deep down inside, we are entering tumultuous times and basically feel it inside.

    Due to abnormal ocean heating, rainfall and floods are rapidly increasing. They have become atypically strong and destructive. And the more the ocean heats up, the more water will evaporate from its surface and, as a consequence, the number of floods, storms and hurricanes will increase.
    Between 1970 and 1979, there were 260 major floods. And from 2014 to 2023 there have already been more than 1,500 (!) major floods. That's a difference of more than 6 times.

      This is normal forever in California and people are starting to study it more using the vast amount of satellite data that wasn't available before. Basically this is the climate pattern that comes and goes, and it is predictable that the weather service gives us warning ahead of time

      Factor in that in the 70's, the metropolitan areas were much smaller. There was not as much development, the rain could flow into farmland and other open areas. As with wildfires, as the population density increases and people move out and develop traditionally open lands, we see greater flood and fire damage. It is not so much that the flood or fire was necessarily larger, but that the economic impact and the cost of rebuilding has increased, therefore "damage has increased". Also, because of modern technology, we get near realtime data, so it seems that things happen more often. No, we are just more aware af them sooner.

      Good ‘ol geoengineering will do that, added to the ocean heating. Don’t believe it’s ongoing rather than mere proposals, there are patents dating back to the 1930s and I am talking well beyond typical cloud seeding as they’ve done over the Sierra Nevada for probably 100 years.

    In 2021 British Columbia (where I live) was devastated due to several atmospheric rivers, and several pineapple express cyclone bombs that occurred together in a relatively short period of time. Before that I had never seen anything like it. It wiped out every major highway/freeway across the province, knocked out power for over 350,000 people, we lost thousands of head of livestock and it devastated crops, and it was the most expensive natural disaster in British Columbia history. Every once in a while Mother Nature comes around and kicks our ass. She likes to remind us who’s really in charge. And it’s no secret, but it’s not us.

    Since when are rain storms categorized and named? A category 5 atmospheric river? How about calling it what it is: Storms coming in from the Pacific that bring a lot of rain. It is nothing new. There is not a city in California along the coast, or inland that did not flood when these storms came through. The dams Newsom is tearing down stopped the flooding. Well, what do you think will happen when the dams are removed?
    Cyclone bombs and atmosperic rivers are made up to scare people. When people are scared, they give up their rights when falsely promised safety. Legislated safety is Marxism. Marxism is the polar opposite of freedom. California used to be about freedom. Now its about boxing people in with fear. Our freedom diminishes with each new law passed by a year around legislature. We don't get to vote for any of the laws that take more of our money and freedoms.
    Anyone can look up the history of floods in California. They were common in the late 1800s thru the mid 20th century when dams began being built. When fire burned away ground cover, the state would spread seed that helped prevent land slides. Why dont they do that anymore? Because there are people that want everyone out of certain regions of the state. The entire coast is what they want. Then they will take the forests. Look at Lahaina, Maui. Climate Change is bs.
