Montecito Evacuation

[okfine]

Yesterday it was pelting rain and most of the creeks were overflowing and mud was everywhere. It wasn't as bad as 5 years ago, but the traffic was horrendous. It took me 2.5 hours to drive home from Montecito to Ventura. Normally, it's a 30 minute drive. The Southbound 101 freeway was the only way out. The Northbound 101 was closed to all traffic at the 101/33 freeway junction in Ventura. The Ventura River which is normally dry, was swollen and 25 feet deep just before it exited into the ocean.

The picture above is the Matilija Dam North of Ojai. All that water spilling over the dam is on it's way to Ventura.

The same defective people who believe in vaccination mandates, shutdowns, everything is racist and suppression of free speech will also be the ones to blame this on global warming. Democrats just don't make good Americans. MAGA

Hope you are ok okfine, you folks are getting hammered. More severe drought, and torrential rains. It's all been predicted.

It's not like 8 inches of rain in a day will evaporate.

If you live on a hill like I do you can watch yer neighbors float away.

It's very quiet at home right now and not raining. More rain is expected, though. There are no cars on the 101 freeway, which is nearby my place.
I heard a boy was swept away yesterday by the San Ysidro creek.

Is it worse than 2017? From the video you posted, it showed a raging creek in some kind of canal that was built after the 2017 floods and they said "it was doing its job", but coastal roads are going to crumble, undercut by erosion.

That creek has been heavily re-engineered and so far it has been doing a good job. Up Hot Springs Road is where the San Ysidro Creek wiped out most of the San Ysidro Ranch Resort. TV news showed it last night. It looks like it may have destroyed parts of it again.

Yes, because in the Western US periods of no rain followed by periods of heavy rain are unheard of.....

Are they calling this atmospheric river the Pineapple Express?

Are they calling this atmospheric river the Pineapple Express?

Yes. This is the Pineapple Express. It brings warm water Laden air up from Hawaii. It meets cold air coming from Canada and it rains. It's been doing this for thousands of years.
