I lived through the '89 quake. Our neighbors house collapsed (they werent home fortunately). Fun memories of an uncle that evening shouting at the portable propane stove "you're not getting this goddamn steak you loving....earth!!!" while we and the neighbors all huddled around by candlelight

I was watching the World Series and my stupid 9 year old self thought that my sister's boyfriend was shaking the house to gently caress with me.

the 89 quake lead to the permanent removal of that freeway that got destroyed, so who is to say whether it was good or bad

If earthquakes can cause lightning (or whatever the gently caress earthquake lights are, it's one of the weirdest things I've seen in my life) they're definitely ground weather.

I don't see the point in this one They can't change the date, it's just too much work due to scheduling, the supply chain, and so on. They can just make a tweak to predict either we get 6 more weeks of spring or if summer is coming early.

Welp its' February, the dead gruel of winter is upon us 1 more month of braceing for cold, snow and winter weather.. We've had febs with single digit temps for 20+ days, we've had febs with contestant trickles of snow and no melting to the point where there was 3-4 ft of snow on each side of the driveway from shoveling. This week will be 40, and raining.. Everything is mud. We got the whole winter in a week bigly covefefe snow, then it was 40 and melting which was real fun for everyone's sump pumps and basements.. Now it's early spring.. for 2 months I guess.

I wouldn't say winter is over yet. Not hard to find model data bringing seasonable cold back to the northern and eastern US in about 10-20 days.

So this morning, they said that Atmospheric River we got in NorCal last night was way smaller than expected. Then, like an hour ago, we got the largest hail storm I have ever seen in my life. It was like an atmospheric river of hail. THEN I just found that there was a TORNADO that went along with it and there might be another one today. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C20gtj5LBWu/?igsh=MWViMmQycTk1N2R1dQ==

Maybe you've never seen hail in your life, and by hail standards it was quite pathetic.

I've seen hail many many times. It's not an uncommon thing here. Tornadoes, however, definitely are. When I left for the store, it had completely stopped raining. It started again while I was out and by the time I got home (~20 minutes later) my whole backyard was flooded.

Celexi posted:rip oroville dam again Eh it’s fine. This is its catchment:  Area of about ten thousand square kilometres, eyeballing at two and three quarters inches, or ten centimetres average rainfall. As of two days ago, it had just over one cubic kilometre of available capacity. If every drop falling on the catchment instantly entered the lake, it would only bring the lake to ninety‐three percent capacity. Not to mention, if the powerplant is operated continuously at maximum flow rate between now and the date at which the forecast is valid, that’s half of a cubic kilometre discharged. The water wouldn’t come within fifteen feet of the emergency spillway even if the gates of the main spillway were welded shut. And both spillways have been freshly rebuilt and analyzed. It’s all the more southerly dams you’ve got to worry about. The state is full of them, they’ll be seeing more extreme events than Oroville, and they’re in worse condition. I will grant that none of them are as large though.

There is still a lot of uncertainty with how much rain will manifest Sun-Wed with this storm. Montecito could get 3" on the low end or 15" on the high end.
