Lake is already about 10' higher than we were at the end of 2016 before the 2017 near failure. - [link to oroville.lakesonline.com]

Snowpacks at 113% of average as of Dec 19th - [link to ktla.com (secure)]

I would not want to live anywhere downstream of that dam.

Notice the severe leakage on the face of the spillway. It starts at the radius. The leaks r from water under the deck going through the deck plates. Its a dangerous spillway. Let's hope its not used. Beware downstream.

Wow. Thanks.

With the lake down over 100 feet and the subsequent drop in pressure against the hill, I didn't think there would be much leaking yet. So this does look ominous. Nowhere to go but up, and much worse.

Hello beloved Orotards, into the new wet season we ride.

I sent this Paul Preston twitter post to the Scott and Lisa public email. Lisa responded:

No, the leaking is not normal. Yes, in my (Lisa) opinion the water is way too high for flood control. I've been watching water levels for a few months now.

I really appreciate the heads up and link to Paul's post.

Thank you again Aubrey Clare. (I was wondering if you might be the old Amanda with a new handle. If not, we welcome you to the most addicting GLP thread ever.)

Wondering if it will be a dry year or not. Starting out with a wet Dec, but that could change.

CA - DWR

@CA_DWR


Today, DWR conducted the 1st Phillips Station snow survey of 2020. The manual survey recorded 33.5" of snow depth & a snow water equivalent of 11", which is 97% of average for this location. Statewide, the Sierra snowpack is 90% of average.

I did a search for Garlock dam and nothing comes up. Do you mean something else? Thanks.

Garlock Fault above LA. Wouldn't affect Oroville... but the southern area seems to be " loosening"... besides up north west of Washington... the plate up there.. really tired tonight. not wanting to look it up. Juan de Fuca?

Aubrey Clare...lovely name, welcome back to another round of this fiasco.

All....thanks, the one up NW of WA they call Cascadia but it's where Juan is sliding over or under. And I think there are a lot of inner connections. It might be handy for DWR if they could breach the dam right after a major shake and blame the earthquake. At this point I wouldn't put anything past them.

The Juan DeFuca is sliding under the North American Plate. Tremendous stress. It is like a little wedge Between the Pacific and North American Plates. I am so happy my daughter got transferred out of Tacoma a year ago.

Also, 'Juan'...sliding under...LOL.

Yes, he is. A long-time local boy who got assimilated by the MSM.

Do you think it could handle a 9mg plus on the northern section of the San Andreas. It's what is going to destroy San Francisco and it has to be sometime this year because it happens not too long before the start of WW3. The destruction of San Francisco is the end of the USA economy( you'll have about 50 percent working before in some type of job then it all goes bad after that).

Friends in Washington State, Oregon, and California.

The near disaster experience that the Lake Oroville dam brought to us last year was a stern warning to leave California.

Be aware, however, that even greater threats face you.

Let me paint a picture for you.

1) There will be a huge tsunami on the West Coast of the United States this month. (January, 2020)

2) There will be massive earthquakes along the Cascadia fault line. I expect that everything West of Hwy 5 will sink and flood - think Vancouver to San Diego.

3) The Lake Oroville earthen dam will fail as the soil liquefies. The height of Lake Oroville IS NOT IMPORTANT.

You are now down to just a few days left to get out.

Do not think to yourself that you can leave at the first sign of trouble. When the ground starts shaking, it will be too late. The roads and bridges will crumble. You will be trapped and you will die.

Make peace with your Creator now. Then ask Him if what I am telling you is true. Your Heavenly Father loves you. He does NOT want to lose you.

Put gas in your car and go. NOW.

May the Creator of heaven and earth bless all of you and your families.

Sincerely,

Dan
