Oroville dam situation in precious few words
Mon, Feb 13, 2017 - 10:04 PM
There is rain in the forecast for Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and the following Tuesday.
One solid day of running the main spillway at 40% of max (100K qfs versus 250K qfs) caused another 300 feet of spillway to erode back. With the amount of rain coming, the quickly failing main spillway, and zero ability to utilize the emergency spillway without losing the top of the dam, there's a high probability of dam failure.
Every other dam in California's system is filled to capacity, and spring runoff has not even started. Levee failures are already happening due to all the dams at high outflow and the fact that communists in California's government gave $25 billion to illegals, while they let California's water infrastructure rot with far less than $1 billion.
The San Joaquin Valley was once a 600 square mile inland sea. It may return to that status this year.
