#Mudslides, 126-mph winds and feet of snow pummel #California amid #AtmosphericRiver
The biggest storm so far this winter blasted California with #flooding #downpours, #hurricane-force winds and feet of #snow in the mountains. Some of the worst damage occurred near the #BurnScars from January's deadly #fires.

"Mudslides, flooding downpours and feet of mountain snow were unleashed across California as the biggest storm so far this winter hit the state, including areas devastated by deadly #wildfires in January.
"Evacuations were ordered and roads were shut down near the burn scars of the #PalisadesFire and the #EatonFire due to the risk of mudslides, flash flooding and debris flows, including a stretch of the #PacificCoastHighway between #Malibu and #SantaMonica.
"A person with the Los Angeles Fire Department was swept away in a vehicle amid the flooding but managed to escape with only minor injuries, according to The Associated Press.
"Bulldozers were needed to clear feet of mud, rock and debris from some roads as the heavy rain ran off the charred mountainsides.
"'Over 10 inches of rain fell in some areas, including 10.87 at Manchester, on the coast west of #Sacramento, and 9.89 inches at Mining Ridge, 90 miles south of #SanJose,' AccuWeather Meteorologist and Digital Producer Jesse Ferrell said.
"Rain even fell in California's #DeathValley National Park, with 0.18 of an inch falling in the hottest place in North America. In an entire year, the remote park typically measures 2.20 inches of rain."

Um, so it's blowing my mind that toots from the @centerforbiodiv aren't getting boosts. Do the planet a favor and like and boost their account (yes, I know, it's a bot from the Bird Site). The work they do is so important! Support their work if you can!

I heard about this from a relative in the Southern US (NOT a Trump supporter).
Trump funding freeze could leave communities on their own as climate threats grow
By Michael Copley
Published February 12, 2025 at 5:30 AM ESTExcerpts: "The funding freeze is being felt across the U.S.
"A #Missouri school district couldn't pay for almost two dozen electric school buses it ordered to replace a fleet of diesel buses. In #SpringfieldMassachusetts, officials didn't know if the city would get money it was promised to #weatherize homes, remove #LeadPaint and #RepairRoads. #Oklahoma regulators warned $100 million in grant funding to plug abandoned #OilAndGas wells was in jeopardy. A #NorthCarolina official said the state risks losing out on more than $100 million in conservation projects that could protect communities from #floods and #wildfires. And in Kersey, Colo., officials had to hope the government would unfreeze money to remove an old grain elevator covered in #asbestos, a cancer-causing substance that's linked to the deaths of tens of thousands of Americans every year.
"'We wouldn't be able to move forward without it,' Susie Thielbert, a grant analyst for Kersey, told Colorado Public Radio about the grain-elevator project. 'We are a very small community.'"
[...]
"Parts of West Virginia 'have been left behind' for decades, Crowe says, but money had started flowing in from the Biden-era laws that Trump's now targeting.
"'Their infrastructure is failing,' Crowe says. 'And without the federal government coming in to help support them, they're not going to be able to come up with that money on their own.'
"Similar concerns are rippling through the region, says Dana Kuhnline, senior program director at ReImagine Appalachia, an advocacy group."
