These people are so dumb. Epic floods in California are perfectly natural and historically have occurred about every 200 years. The last great flood was in 1862. Indians knew according to their tradition to pack up and move to the hills.
Climate change is increasing the risk of floods that could submerge cities and displace millions of people across the state, according to a study released Friday.
Every 200 Years, California Endures a Flood of Epic Proportions - and This Could Be It
Record-breaking rains in California have brought on its wettest winter in decades, with rainfall hitting almost 200 percent above average in certain parts, and drought-affected areas in the state dropping by 22 percent in a single week.

The Native Americans knew the Big Flood was coming.
A story in the Nevada City Democrat on Jan. 11, 1862, said, “We are informed that the Indians living in the vicinity of Marysville left their abodes a week or more ago for the foothills predicting an unprecedented overflow. They told the whites that the water would be higher than it has been for thirty years, and pointed high up on the trees and houses where it would come.”
The Great Flood of 1862 devastated much of the West
In the days of Noah, “All the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. And rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights,” and the entire world was destroyed.
