It was one of the main reasons for the creation of the TVA.The Great Flood of 1862 was the largest flood in the recorded history of Oregon, Nevada, and California, occurring from December 1861 to January 1862. It was preceded by weeks of continuous rains and snows in the very high elevations that began in Oregon in November 1861 and continued into January 1862. This was followed by a record amount of rain from January 9–12, and contributed to a flood which extended from the Columbia River southward in western Oregon,.Wow, monsoons never killed anyone in Asia before....
Moron.
I'd have the same response if it were your neighborhood.
Really? 1862 a great flood turned the Central Valley of California into a lake. Has that happened again now that globalwarmingclimatechangeglobalclimatedisruption has gone out of control?
It might, depends on the conditions
Mississippi River basin flood of 1927 I think it was, was also a doozy. The
Book "Rising Tide" is a fascinating read.
And mass migration of black folk north as armed MS delta land owners held black workers hostage at gun point in a feckless attempt to hang onto a sharecropper work force. Once the waters receded, many left.
