El Nino '15

bobabode · #1 07-20-2015, 06:52 PM

This one is promising to be stronger than the '97 El Nino.

Main highway from LA to Phoenix, US Interstate 10 after flash flood from Dolores.

"The El Niño phenomenon that has warmed Pacific waters has apparently laid out a welcome mat for tropical storms to creep north, closer to the California coast than during normal years, allowing for systems such as Tropical Storm Dolores to bring muggy, rainy weather to the West’s parched landscape, said Stuart Seto, an National Weather Service spe************************t."

“Even though Dolores is a pretty good wake-up call for us, we should start preparing for late August or early September,” Seto said, saying that's when the region could see more sustained rains." LATimes

Nothing here in Tahoe Bob nor in the Bay Area. Maybe better luck on the next one. They sure do seem to be developing.

We were getting more monsoon moisture last year.

Not a construction expert; I am just guessing: that bridge seems like one of those
assembled types. Looks like it is disassembled along the seams.

Earth foundation on one side washed off with the deluge.

AK member Edwin will move from California to Lorraine (France) pretty soon. Congratulations - no drought, no El Nino, and he will also miss the Big One.
