Officials and experts say that widespread flooding, overflowing reservoirs and rivers does not end the drought.

The state has already made a political declaration that we are in a "permanent drought".

In CA if you control the water you control everything. But sometimes the water controls you.

Get out the boats.

..Tornados, hurricanes, storm = weather. Big deal......”

That’s probably what Noah’s neighbors said years ago?

California seasons include: Burning, mud slides, flooding, and shaking with long dry periods in between sometimes.

This can’t be. Only a year or two ago the apocalyptic warmists were saying the rains were never coming back and we were in for a 1,000 year drought that was going to kill every living creature and plant in all of California. I’m not sure who to believe...them or my own lying eyes.

Bitch, bitch, bitch. All the liberals and Marxists in California do is bitch about the weather - too hot, not enough rain, not enough snow cover in the mountains, farmers demanding water to grow crops to feed people, yada, yada, yada!

Well, they’re getting the rain and the snow they asked for. Maybe God heard them and decided to teach them a lesson
a la Noah-style.

A frozen liberal is a good liberal, reminiscent of those poor Mt. Everest climbers who remain frozen forever on the climbing trails. A veritable frozen human statue garden as in “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil” with them representing the “evil”. Jerry Brown would be placed in the front of the entrance to this “snow garden” so that dogs could piss on him for eternity.

Oh, the image of it all! I’m going to celebrate it right now with my wife’s newly cooked banana-bread loaf and a real Coca Cola soda in a non-returnable bottle.

Singing “Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow”.
Revenge is sweat, even if it is only in your dreams.

These are so ungodly rare... the last “Pineapple Express” worthy of mention (at least in Wikipedia) was in...

2014.

(Do I need to add the “/s”?)

:-)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pineapple_Express

Note that a 2010 storm dropped up to 13 ft. of snow, and 2 ft. of rain, and if you want a “real” system, in 2005 the rain total at San Marcos Pass, in Santa Barbara County, was 24.57 inches (624 mm), and Opids Camp (AKA Camp Hi-Hill), in the San Gabriel Mountains, received 31.61 inches (80.3 cm) of rain in a five-day period.

(Note to article writer: These storms seem to occur more often than 10 years apart.)

The Green Party in California is changing it name this winter to the Donner party.

The political solution is quite simple. The state can simply make a political declaration that "we are in a permanent flood".

Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling! Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes, the dead rising from the grave! Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together. Mass hysteria!

— California, in a nutshell
