Lets fill up the old Owens lake bed, and restore it.
37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.—God promised it wouldnt be the same as Noah’s flood,but itd be like it. I am who i said since 2018
Well there you go California. You DEHCTIB about not having water, here’s some water for you.
Oh no. The end is near. LOL!!!!!!
WHO CARES!!!!!! NATURE!!!!!…….HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
fortunately california has build a few reservoirs to capture this runoff over the years, whew! O wait, no they haven't… morons…
Acting quickly can make these snow pack water resources useful in the now why wait on building something if quick think and action can put the trades hands to work and the water to use and to be saved…
Catch as much water as we can preserve as much as we can and divert as much water as we can to all areas of California
Two Words. Tulare Lake.
God provides and CA officials still complain that we have not gotten out of the drought…SMH🤯
CA should be be grateful 😳
If only there was a way to capture this water and store it in Lake Mead. It seems like our government would have come up with said system, a system that would ultimately be drained back in the Colorado river and used by California.
It is 90+ degrees in Redding everyday in May, someone needs to put a big piece of gold in the river make its cool and smell good. Cost maybe 2,3,4,5 or 6 ounces. Or else the bubbles going to burst. But the people deserve a better expierence too, maybe 50% more of course you have to run it on in silver, copper and gold. Maybe it’s too strong for you at 1/4oz bedrock rendition? You need water to drink, iron and potassium and a vitamin and some of your own precious metal. Muscarinic arenes done professionally is a type of rendition.
I rather have more water then none.
I feel like. The taxpayer will take the brunt of the Bill and private industry We'll take the profits.
you figure CA gov would figure out a way to capture all that snowmelt in verticle tubes to reduce evap. or create more reservoirs.
Its okay everyone… all that excess water will wash away all the $h!tt¥ people in cali….
Aside from the impending snow melt, there is a wild card: the injection of SEAWATER into the stratosphere & mesosphere during the Tonga Hunga Tonga Haa’apai volcanic eruption on January 15, 2022 means that numerous elements and compounds were also expelled, among them: sodium, chlorine, magnesium, calcium, potassium, phosphorus, iron, mercury, uranium, iodine, bromine, fluorine, sulfur, nitrogen, oxygen and silica to name but a few.
Bearing in mind that the entrained CO2, chlorine & fluorine along with high blast temperature & pressure must have formed ozone-destroying CFC’s. What long-term effect all this will have on global weather is anybody's guess.
Army corps of engineers set up a massive pumping station using the San Joaquin river to fill the new Stiles reservoir. All hands on deck.
Nice….wash those dummycrats into the pacific🤓🤠😎😁🤣😂
Those ‘simplistic’ measurements in the field are essential means to calibrate and verify what the remote sensing indicates. Please don’t diminish the value of the ‘direct’ data!
We really do measure everything but the metric system lol
It probably a dumb idea but why not allow water trucks to pump from lakes , becoming too full, then take the water to other dry holding areas. Also the air planes used to pick up water for wild fires …why not use them to move as much water as possible,& drop it to n dried up basins.
Millions of people on the west coast are living off imports and reselling them. This is by the San Francisco Treaty. Rev 17:18 Maybe they shouldn't live there.
Thats good though last year they were low in water…now they have more than enough.
Global warming converted to global “colding”
Better stock up on insect repellent.
its Nature Flushing the toilet on California , bunch of toxic waste on the streets , a nice disaster is what california needs right now , I wouldn't move there if you paid my rent
Global warming lol
Nice
I have no sympathy for the impending flooding. As a 20+ year previous resident of California I watched as they wasted billions on a train instead of water collection. All the weather science had continually said the expect a surg of rainy weather to flip the drought… California corrupt politics did Nothing for water infrastructure before or during the drought. Now it's an "emergency". That's over 10+ yesrs Sacramento had to plan and build water collection to solve a problem they knew would come. Same with super fires that have killed and permanently destroyed towns. It's sad we had to move out of state because of all the mismanagement, drove cost and safety out of control.
😂wheres Al gore?
I guess that solves the drought right?
They could put all the homeless to work and go plant trees. Build burn gaps so theres less fuel
I pray that they don't let the water go to waste. Need to refill all the lakes, reservoirs and more. Don't know when this will happen again. Hopefully the drought is finally over.
