"#ClimateChange is increasing the risk of a #California #megaflood, Swain's study warns. This extreme storm scenario would produce runoffs 200-400% greater than anything seen before in the Sierra Nevada.
"Imagine that what's unfolded over the past 48 hours [in California], just kept recurring for weeks. That's the kind of scenario we're talking about," says Swain."

Tomas Pueyo writes about "The Megaflood that Created the Mediterranean"
Very interesting content about how the Mediterranean Sea was filled in under 2 years!

California may not yet be at the #megaflood stage of its rainy winter, but when Tulare Lake starts reforming you know things just ain't normal no more...

I'm wondering if we are at our close to the point where the next wet and warm atmosphere river or two could trigger the megaflood that puts Central California under water?
What do you say @weatherwest ?

Given ongoing events, I wanted to remind folks that projected snowfall at highest mountain elevations in our #ARkStorm2.0 scenarios is actually considerably *greater* in the "warmer future" scenario vs historical scenario despite an overall decrease in snowpack. Why? [1/2] #CAwx

History -> California Megaflood
People don't remember that Sacramento used to flood, and they have flood gates.
