Pictures. Despite the devastation, a couple of cute pics:

You're crazy if you want me to get into that little boat.

And yet the water dipshits in this state still insist we’re in a drought. Not any more. There’s 4 more atmospheric rivers headed our this week and into this coming weekend.

Weather Channel is a joke! Attention whores! I looked for news of Oroville damn last night. WC deployed all resources to NE to make snowballs. Meanwhile a true catastrophe was threatening.

If the libs quit trying to kill the ag business, they might redirect money from that useless rail project to this and other dam reconstruction.

Thanks bgill!

From the article:

“...The evacuation was ordered Sunday afternoon after engineers spotted a hole on the concrete lip of the secondary spillway for the 770-foot-tall Oroville Dam and told authorities that it could fail within the hour. ...”

Different hole than the big pothole partway down the spillway.

This is intentional to prevent Jefferson from seceding.

When this crisis began it was amazing how little interest in it was shown by the national media.

It seems that if it doesn’t involve the struggle for control over the power of the federal government or their waging of the culture war, the national media is not much interested.

IS this Fake News or real?? Moonbeam and his minions have been telling us for YEARS that it is not cyclical and that PERMANENT DROUGHT and DRY CALIFORNIA is a result of runaway Global Warming, so this must be FAKE NEWS right??

ps, prayers for those downstream

Strangely the spillway damage was pointed out DAYS before the overflow flooding began.

Authorities at that time said "no problem"... everything under control.

They’re more worried this will reflect poorly on Obama and Brown, than about the citizens this fiasco has displaced, and the potential massive property damage that may follow.

That’s right folks, it was Bush’s fault.

Good grief. Truman was wrong. The buck doesn’t stop anywhere unless it’s on a Republican’s desk.
