The rain is also expected to complicate the already challenging search for human remains among the rubble of the Camp fire. The devastation can be deadly and often comes without warning. The soil in recently burned areas cannot absorb significant amounts of rainwater, so excessive precipitation can lead to fast-moving flows containing mud, debris and even trees and boulders. When we have rapid runoff, that’s when it can bring down entire hillsides.” “If the rain comes over time, there’s some opportunity for it to absorb or gradually run off. “It’s the intensity that can cause debris flows,” said Eric Kurth, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.

“Ash doesn’t absorb water, which complicates things,” Gates said.Ī third storm could bring 2½ to 4 inches of rain to the charred region from Friday through Sunday. The California Conservation Corps also has been working on erosion-control measures for mountain slopes filled with fire-damaged pine and chaparral. The Butte County Emergency Operations Center has prepared for the rain by clearing drainage culverts of debris, said Matt Gates, public information officer for the Paradise Police Department. Forecasters predicted about an inch of precipitation, saying the relatively weak system would sputter out by early Wednesday.īut a stronger storm will roll in late Wednesday, bringing with it the potential for debris flows and up to 3 inches of rain through Thursday night. that the problem.The first of three storm systems expected in wildfire-ravaged Butte County, Calif., dropped a smattering of rain Tuesday. > greg: i said this on "the five," and i'm going to say again, we paid taxes to protect police fear but we don't pay our taxes, we go to jail, so that is part of the contract, but if they don't fulfill - if they don't fulfill the other side of the bargain, nothing happens to them, so we do not get the goods and services we are paying for, and we die, but there is no consequence. this guy does not deserve to be a district attorney. where is the accountability? that is what i want to see. what say you, banderas-bidwell? > i will say this as a banderas and a bidwell, law enforcement is under attack in this country,Īnd the fact these two cops out in california are dead is on the hands of not only gascon, who is a liberal d.a., but one of many liberal d.a.'s in this country that do not back law enforcement, do not backfill reform, do not believe in keeping people incarcerated, this thug, whose name i will not mention, should have been in jail for 3-5 years, he would not have been out on the streets, therefore these two men would still be alive.

> greg: that is why you are having the january 6th hearings, because the two issues that are just going to destroy democrats are the economy and crime, so what they are trying to do is make january 6th bigger than anything, but it is not working. that is not a lot to ask for, but apparently it is too much for democrats to get. you want to talk about the red wave coming, be soft on crime prosecutors, the fact we have a department of justice in this country that is also soft on crime, talk about the southern border, talk about these protest outside the supreme court justices house, people want to be able to walk around their neighborhood and not be worried. > that is because he thinks he is supposed to be a supreme court justice, so having to settle for attorney general and actually having to prosecute the law instead of deciding the outcome, that seems a bridge too far for him. Merrick garland? what is his deal? is he just there for the ride? he is not doing his job. it is coming at every level for all of us. this is the most dangerous part of what we are seeing from the left, the attack on the justice system. the president says i will not condemn these threats, i will not condemn these illegal protests, as you pointed out, and then we'll even go to the floor and vote against it, you know why comrade cortez said she would not vote for it, because they had not passed gun laws, so until you do what we do, political extortion, we are not going to protect justices who underlie our entire system. when it is at the highest levels of our justice system, the one institution that we have mostly been able to keep out of politics and has pulled us out of them out of sticky situations, and democrats say no, we will not secure these people. that was the media, though, which is a double standard we have increasingly become used to, we are accustomed to, we know it exists. you're right, and it is the image of the cnn reporter with the building on fire, a mostly peaceful protest.
