As forecasters predicted 12 inches or more of rain in parts of Northern California over the next week, MIT released a new study that warned that the state could expect the frequency of extreme storms to triple by the end of the century.

Anyhow last year they were saying:
California Drought Is Made Worse by Global Warming, Scientists Say
By JUSTIN GILLISAUG. 20, 2015
Global warming caused by human emissions has most likely intensified the drought in California by 15 to 20 percent, scientists said on Thursday, warning that future dry spells in the state are almost certain to be worse than this one as the world continues to heat up.

They are getting smart now — do predictions for WELL AFTER YOU ARE DEAD.
Magic eightball please answer this... “do I care?”
2100?!
The weather bureau can’t even get the weather right for today half the time.
Biggest storm ever will hit sometime in the next 500 years, and if it doesn’t, I’ll eat my hat.
Hopefully the illegals and lazy suffer the most.
Nonsense. This is not science, it is divination.
How stupid. They can’t predict the weather accurately for more than a week but think they can predict it 90 years out?
They should focus on things that really matter, not this bogus garbage.
It’s been nothing more than the standard issue 4 to 5 year cycle.
Every time we get to the dry side of the cycle, the state water agency uses it as an excuse to permanently increase our cost for household water use and put in place ever more draconian restrictions on our farmers.
Then the floods come and everyone is all surprised again. And we get taxed even more for flood mitigation programs that seem to just disappear once the flood cycle is over, but the money disappears with it.
Weather in Cali is just one huge scam generator.
Drought due to Brown giving away water rights. We get taxed for lack of water.
Lots of water leads to us getting taxed.
Inhale= tax.
Exhale = tax.
If there’s drought ... Globull Warming.
If it rains a lot ... Globull Warming.
FAKE SCIENCE!
I guess we’ll have to laugh at them now for making such a prediction because we’ll all be dean in 100 years.
The more you lie about the weather, the more money you get. It’s like welfare.
MIT is unfortunately in bed with the warmist propagandists. i wonder how they deal with the fact that the computer models have nothing to do with reality.
So sad for a former great institution of learning.
I agree. I get tired of hearing about women and minorities hardest hit.
Yes just like we had a bazillion category 5 storms after Katrina.
And yet we never build new reservoirs to store up water during the wet years to use during the dry years.
Better to waste tax dollars on trains to nowhere...
Eureka! (weed!)
That explains the whole business.
