I hope the whole hillside goes and the entire dam falls apart and everything down the river is obliterated for the glory of Satan.

Wait a sec They're pouring 100,000 cf/s down this busted rear end spillway. Could it break down the hill around it, and lead to further dam failure?

Blind Rasputin posted:Does that mean we are out of the woods and the spillway won't fail? It will fail later this week after it rains some more, and a bunch of people have gone back to their homes. Satan will let the dam's collapse wait for better lighting.

I think they had closed the normal spillway to try and fix it and then left it closed for too long, so instead of just a little trickle coming over the emergency hill they got a major overflow.

Chinatown posted:Oroville: lol. The rain at Oroville isn't as important as the rain over the area that drains into the reservoir. There's always still hope for rapid snowmelt wiping the dam out come spring, as well.

Well I guess this is cool that the people working on all this have their poo poo together well enough that they averted a disaster, and now they've got things under control. It's good to see government workers that are good at their job. I was really jonesing for California's Katrina, though.

Space Crabs posted:Yeah I didn't believe them at the press conference when they said the main spillway had eroded as much as it was going to and wouldn't suffer further damage from turning the water up. Well that doesn't look like the spillway itself suffered further damage. The hill next to it just fell apart to the point that the first 50,000 cfs go that way. Maybe the hill will keep falling apart all the way to the dam itself and the waters of chaos will spill forth and the gloRY OF SATAN WILL BE KNOWN TO ALL! HAIL SATAN! HAIL SATAN! But yeah the actual concrete of the main spillway doesn't seem to have changed, as far as I can see.
