A huge Pacific storm is poised to unleash conditions known as an “atmospheric river”, with torrential rains and strong winds putting about 10 million people at risk of flash floods in parts of northern California this weekend.
The incoming tempest has raised fears of mudslides, especially in areas charred during record-setting wildfires this summer.
Some parts of the Pacific north-west, including coastal Oregon, are also expected to see heavy rains and winds, the Bloomberg news website reported.
Much of the Bay Area around San Francisco could see 3-3.5in of rain, with up to 8in expected at higher elevations in the region...

Bureaucrats are big dummies. Oroville was completely full 2 years ago. Unfortunately an act of God(atmospheric river event) is going to let dummies off the hook temporarily.
“atmospheric river”... Never heard of that one before.“
Not a new term .
The Pineapple Express is another term.
It is real weather event that happens .
A good one.
Hopefully it will be enough to wash all the feces off the sidewalks.

Ah

And, hurry up and get those boosters.
Time is of the essence!
There always seems to be at least one
who chooses to debate in a snarky,
condescending manor....
It almost sounds like you believe in
the earth ending climate change genera.
It’s mot uncommon for northern California
to receive this reported amount of
precipitation when past weather events
such as this current have been studied.
My apologies for auto correct misspelling
of “Donner”.
[It almost sounds like you believe in

LOL
No offense meant, Ferris.
I ain’t here to fight with you.
If you disagree with my statements,
I’d welcome open and honest debate,
not snarky, condescending “I think
you’re the stupidest human on the
planet” posts. There’s no benefit
to anyone, even to the hard core
liberals who troll this site. It
only bolsters their belief that
“we’re” the crazy ones. Peace, bro.
Please tell me where my original
post is incorrect other than
misspelling “Donner”.
Where did I say you were incorrect?
IOW I accepted what you said about the weather out there
Thank you.
