The op title is a verbatim quote from the local weather guy.

" A jet stream as big as has ever been seen "

" A possible historical event. "

Emergency flood channel widening along the 91 at green river in the spill way of prado dam says an awful lot to those who know. Mud flows were reported the first day of what appears to be a once in a hundred years storm. An identical storm pattern appears to be forming behind this one, that will dump a years worth of rain in one week.

El Nino data suggests the possibility of a monsoon season extending into June.

There will be loss of life and property damage.

Didn't you predict a huge quake in California or somewhere at the end of 09, or was that someone else?

Hmmm "rains on a Biblical Level"? remember back then they couldn't travel really far, quickly so that means only one town is going to flood?

It's pretty crazy right now.  Tornado warnings, flood warnings, people in kayaks paddling down the street in Long Beach.

@11bravo: people in SoCal freak out during rains because for the most part we live in a desert.

no...not the OC or LA proper.  and the desert in north america is typically not next to a huge fucking ocean.

I think you better learn on your weather. Cold ocean current + west coast of large continent generally means a huge fucking desert right next to the ocean. See: Australia, South America - esp. Chile - and Africa.

same here.

People in NorCal don't freak when it rains because it rains semi-regularly up there.  Down here, notsomuch.

when i tell the old lady it's 'Global Warming' it pisses her off. last night i shovelled three inches of global warming off my drive way, and she said "it's the change in the weather patterns that people are blaming global warming on". all i know is things are not the same . . .

Haha a place that's populated by mostly failed actors likes attention?

Noooo.. I wonder if talking on the news can go on your head shot?

But seriously Cali is a pretty state, but all the shit that comes with it why bother living there?  It seems like every 6 months there's something else to mess your house up.
