Astrologers are better at predictions than “climate scientists”...welcome to the Idiocracy.

If the “bomb cyclone” combines with an “atmospheric river” and the “pineapple express” forces the “polar vortex” to form “thundersnow”, it will be an “existential crisis”.

[mabarker1]

Yes

Can the hyperbole get more ridiculous? Pretty soon those into scaring people will start naming each cloud some scary name.

They complained about the drought, now they complain about the rain.

There’s just no pleasing some people.................

[joe fonebone]

I thought it was an atmospheric river???

Judgment of God on California?
Well, I don’t mean that I have the authority to say that is what is happening. But I think the question should be obvious to others.
Fires
Mudslides
Invasion by illegal aliens
Drugs and overdose deaths
Torrential rains
Will big earthquakes be coming soon?
I know there are many good people, and even some Christians trying to live Godly lives there. But I guess I am just having my Captain Obvious moment.

We’re in Reno. In downtown not too much snow. At our place around a foot. Driveway here we come. 😳. We get “shaddowed” out a lot of the heavy precip.

Lake Meade is about a third full. It is at ~10M acre feet now. Full capacity is ~30M.

The media frenzy is amusing.

Heavy rain and high winds but hardly a state of emergency.

Drove through it and it was windy with very heavy rain but not that big of a deal

Would not want to be one of the homeless living in the drainage tunnels though

If they just had some dams to capture the water for future use. Oh wait..

Are you always this much of a jerk, or are you just feeling frisky today?

A little of both. Par for the course on this site.

[Celtic Conservative]

Well, at least you’re honest and well adjusted about it.

The PGA canceled the fourth round of the Pebble Beach Pro-Am tournament due to the storm.

Wyndam Clark was declared the winner, leading after 54 holes.
