Historic rains and flooding push California fault lines toward the “Big One”
Geophysicists are voicing their concerns about the impact of southern California’s recent week-long storm deluge on the Golden State’s fragile earthquake fault lines. The trillions of gallons of water that dumped on the southland are putting incredible weight on the San Andreas and other SoCal fault lines, which are massively overdue for the so-called “Big […]

Major storm, largest in 20 years, strikes southern California, bringing “astronomical rain totals” and risk of mudslides
Los Angeles and other parts of southern California’s most populated areas are getting slammed by record-breaking rain totals that are causing widespread flooding, mudslides and associated evacuations. The weather event, a so-called “atmospheric river” that data indicates is the most severe in 20 years or more, was described as “potentially historic” days before it arrived. […]

When it rains at Burning Man, it FLOODS and becomes SWAMP MAN
Black Rock City, Nev., where the Burning Man debauchery festival is held annually, turned into a swamp this year after heavy rains blasted the desert party and trapped some 73,000 attendees in the “muddy hellhole.” According to reports, event organizers barred Burning Man attendees from leaving the area because “widespread muddy conditions created treacherous driving conditions.” […]

Following years of scorching drought, California now has TOO MUCH water – produce crops suffering
California is about to receive its dozenth-or-so “atmospheric river” rainstorm this winter season after many years of persistent, crippling drought. And the consequence of this deluge of precipitation is massive flooding in some of the Golden State’s prime growing regions. The state’s spring-summer harvesting season is expected to be drastically altered because of all the rain, […]

Microplastics are everywhere, including in New Zealand’s rainfall
New research published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology reveals that in 2020 alone, some 74 metric tons of microplastics – that is, the plastic particulates released from waste into the environment – fell on the city of Auckland in New Zealand via rainfall. The first peer-reviewed study of its kind to calculate the […]

Los Angeles to recycle BIOSLUDGE into tap water; Angelenos will soon be drinking recycled diarrhea and urine from the tap
As part of a new water conservation plan, the city of Los Angeles and numerous other water districts throughout Southern California are proposing recycling sewer water back through people’s taps. That recycled water would be filtered, of course. But “direct potable reuse,” as they are calling it, is still essentially biosludge water that could contain […]

Sierra snowpack falls to one of lowest levels in 72 years, perpetuating California drought
California’s three-year drought appears to be growing more severe as the Sierra Nevada snowpack, which provides 30 percent of the state’s water supply, is currently at one of its lowest levels in over seven decades. Automatic sensors spread across the massive mountain range show that snowpack levels are about 39 percent of normal levels. Dozens of […]

Bacterial populations use seepage water to travel between the surface and subsoils
In this study, German researchers investigated the mobilization of certain bacterial populations present in the soil after dynamic hydraulic events. Their findings were published in the journal Soil Biology and Biochemistry. During extreme precipitation events, substantial amounts of organic matter are mobilized, resulting in fluxes in carbon from the topsoil to deeper mineral soil and groundwater. […]
