>What happened so far - Main spillway got damaged - because of no maintaining - because Cali thought that they will never have that much water again - because of Muh Climate Change. And they needed the money for illegals. - They closed the main spillway to inspect the damage - Because of the closed main spillway, water went over the emergency spillway - Emergency spillway was in even worse condition and it got BTFO pretty bad - They opened the main spillway again, so that water doesn't go over the emergency spillway any longer - Main spillway gets slowly BTFO and half of it is gone. But it is stable at the moment. - They try to "repair" the emergency spillway because if rain hits hard, water will go over it again (even if they keep the main spillway open) and would rek the dam
> Be careful! There is plenty of old footage marked als livestream!
Reminder, dat inflow rose a little and reached this time 42K again. Muh corellation, bitches.
But rain continues to weaken.
William Young
It keeps lowering, no happening. Thanks FUCK hwndu is on again, there will be gunshots!
Gavin Baker
I'm impressed that you were able to fit some bull shit in to one post. Good job! Wanna be President?
Ethan Sanchez
Essentially nothing happened other than a spillway failure. Thanks for nothing again, kek and Sup Forums. Seriously, stop making 300 threads about LITERALLY NOTHING.
honestly, if they somehow manage to pass this week of rain without drowning, I seriously hope they're gonna fix that shit. There must be a limit to how retarded a commie can be, right?
Brayden Johnson
>DTR How to open?
Nathaniel Evans
Clearly there is interest in this. If you are such a fucking petty child, leave these comfy threads and go to another thread. All you have to do is push buttons on your mouse. It is really really simple.
Mason Mitchell
Ahahaha hahahaha no
Levi Murphy
DIDF infested thread.
Colton Cook
That's just because they lowered the output since they reached their target height.
Tyler Brooks
we could bomb the nips again and people like you would be like "Wow something blew up get a life lmao"
>ITT: HAPPENING addicts dig on the carpet looking for crumbs to get their fix
I'm not talking shit because I'm here to, but let's call it as it is.
Luke Gonzalez
what happened with the rain last night senpai, did it make the water higher and what about the hurricane has it come yet.
Daniel Edwards
Y-you'll see when the hill starts sliding away towards Sacramento!
Juan Cook
I had a kebab last night and i had one hell of a muddy flow of my own this morning.
Not eating that shite anymore, fresh fruit and big macs only from now on
Christian Myers
Well it's California, so you're not wrong.
Easton Evans
dam the record
Carson White
Hes wasted and falling to sleep
Ian Peterson
Alright so inflow is gradually rising but they are also lowering outflow rates because now they are safe.
Happening averted guys.
It's been fun though. Lots of good conversation, characters like batteryfag and an overall absence of shills.
Colton Hughes
Yes and?
Thomas Cruz
/ourguy/
Sebastian Mitchell
kek pls make this happening happen
Anthony Campbell
Sad but I think the Aussie is right. When nothing happened about it in the last 24hrs I think is over, unless battery fails.
Xavier Nelson
>44 Confirmed. Sorry guys.
Luke Walker
At least this is gunna cost them a metric fuckload of money to fix
David Ortiz
Oh well, had some /comfy/ threads with you guys
Robert Sanders
Sounds like something a dam would say
Daniel Perez
This is your threadly reminder to get comfy and settle in
Justin Hughes
It's getting less and less likely anything interesting will happen every passing day and there isn't even any livestreams.
This is a lame happening.
Blake James
not going to affect the area around the damn though. Check the forecast for oroville, not that much rain
Joshua Wright
Then why is every article about Oroville saying that the strongest rainfall will be on Sunday and Monday? When even the mainstream media and dam officials are saying that, you can't play the "muh exaggerated" card.
Juan Richardson
Seriously guys, we just have to melt all the snow in every nearby mountain, get a few more torrential downpours, and have several safety measures of the dam fail, and have every engineer in the state not try anything, and have a once in a millenium earthquake, then a nearby town nobody has ever heard of will be flooded.
Wew lad, those mental gymnastics of hoping for the very smallest of disasters possible. Tell me again how Bernie had a chance of being president again.
Cooper Lewis
fuck off DIDF
Robert Anderson
actually, you can. Concern trolling by the MSM to distract from what else may be happening
Kevin Peterson
since they lowered the outflow, they must be very sure that the rain won't make the dam spill over. Else they'd flood the cities a little now but keep the outflow high.
Too bad they forgot to account for KEK.
Andrew Howard
Did anything happen last night? I missed out on the late night threads so i'm just going off what people are saying this morning.
Sebastian Powell
All it needs to do is keep eroding away at that hillside and letting water seep into the soil. It just needs to get weak enough and then you get a repeat of pic related.
All they can do is damn up the emergency spillway and hope for the best.
Jack Adams
I mean it all comes down to their judgement. Previously their judgement was that the main spillway didn't need repairs, that the emergency spillway could handle 100k+ cfs, etc. They have a bad track record of prediction, although that might have changed once they declared it an emergency, maybe they now have competent people in charge. But because of that history of bad predictions, there'll be people who won't believe it's over until the rainy season is over. (And I'm kind of one of those guys.)
Colton Bell
the outflow has been lowered due to both the inflow and storage levels, as well as the river levels past the dam. If they kept it going at 100k CFS the flooding downstream would have become problems
this is damage control in it's purest form. all they can do is react
Julian Hernandez
>It's getting less and less likely anything interesting will happen every passing day
Are you aware how erosion works? The storm hasn't even hit yet. If this storm passes then the threads should die, but rain is forecasted until thursday.
I live an hour from the dam, you have no idea how incompetent these people are and how much they lie to cover their asses.
Dylan Taylor
...
Jayden Jenkins
So many people here memed Aqua and wished for California storm, actualy to punish those who DESERVE it, but probably mistaken it a little (?) and so the storm came and striken the Cali where it most deserves (LA, Unholywood) ...
Just the Oroville inflow does not reflect it much yet...
Luis Brooks
there's a new mud flow, which could be devastating as it might cause more erosion and water log the hill, causing a landslide
Camden Reed
>But rain continues to weaken. Mountain run off will take some time to accumulate in the reservoir, so they'll have to keep the outflow high.
Samuel Hill
LETS. GET. WET!!!
Adrian Bell
Did anything come of that "crack" they were talking about on the radio scanner yesterday?
Andrew Anderson
Their target was 850 before yesterdays rain. LOL. They missed their target. They lowered it because of the power station, the levee's downstream, and the massive erosion that is happening.
Connor Ross
We need to at least wait until after that storm has passed to call off the happening, it was never going to happen before that. This is a slow-motion happening, not much will happen until it does. Have faith brothers.
Oh! instead of ice melting, or paint drying, or watching hair grow we just have to wait for erosion to take place. What a happening!
Eli Rivera
>This is a slow-motion happening
happening fags need to prepare to wait seevral months
it'll make the inevitable collapse even sweeter
Christopher Myers
My prediction is that they weather the next few days, then reduce the primary spillway to the point where it's not fucking up the power plant's outflow area, restore the powerplant, shut off the primary spillway and then spend however long until it next starts to rain severely repairing it.
Nathaniel White
Door's right there, make sure you take your ritalin with you
Thomas Cox
He always pulls through
Kek finds a way
Easton Kelly
Patience is the secret to a long life friend.
Ayden Morgan
This is a slow happening guys, the real test will be Sunday-Monday. There's enough rain to actually start erosion on the hillside of the e-spillway again that day, and plus most dams in the Oroville watershed are almost all 100% full some are already overflowing. If the watershed rivers get 8 inches of rain, like they are supposed to Monday, it doesn't take long to add 50 feet of water.
In addition to that the rest of the dam /levy infrastructure is really going to be tested in the Sacramento these next few days. And I'd kind of like to watch it with you guys since you are far more entertaining than the Weather channel or NOAA.
Wyatt Morris
when was the last time anything happened? I'm bored
Go jerk off, go to your local bar or something. Thread will still be here when you get back, king austismo.
Andrew Murphy
850 but they missed it by 4. They knew about yesterday's rain, they probably accounted for that. But as says, it all comes down to their assumption and to who is actually in charge.
What I was saying is that even if there were going to be damage downstream due to the excessive outflow combined with the rain that's hitting downstream, it would be a desiderable outcome compared to the spillage and potential breakage of the spillways. With a minor flooding you can always say "GOYS IT WAS A DESPERATE SITUATION YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND" but it's pretty hard to try that when the damn thing breaks down.
Bentley Taylor
It might be over for now But they won't be able to repair main spillway for a long, long time Till they fix it, dam isn't safe
Jose Ramirez
Checked. Come to MCOM to get a spare battery.
Austin Thomas
Last weekend?
Isaac Jones
Impressive length user
Jackson Rivera
MCOM can I get an update?
Elijah Walker
We have two spare batteries. We still haven't found the bathroom terrorists.
Jonathan Moore
checked, bathroom terrorists gonna bring down the dam
Zachary Baker
Actually this one is good to make notion, how large is that hole... (And this is some early phase from 11th or 12th Feb, now the hole is even much bigger...)
Evan Rogers
One rogue flush is all it would take at this point.
Joshua Perez
>hole is bigger. The entire lower portion is gone...

Adrian Nguyen
Actually a good chunk of the lower portion is still there, you can see it on the along the left side of the spillway, it's just essentially useless now. The water is just flowing mostly around it instead of on it.
Ian Collins
The hole isn't a hole anymore, the spillway there is just gone. You can see it in more recent pictures, the sides of the spillway have vanished in that area and the water is diverting to either side.
Jeremiah Miller
Last chart before I go to bed. There's been a pretty decent amount of rainfall today, and definitely enough to set up a potential happening if the weather on Sunday/Monday is severe.
