During a break in the storm.
Santa Cruz, California (1/5/23)
#california
#santa cruz
#it's been wild
#capitola and carmel are flooded and being evacuated
#a few piers have been taken out
#natural bridges state park has lost one of its cliffsides
#the local reports are saying ocean swells are 20-30 feet higher than usual
#meanwhile those of us up in the mountains are hunkering down with camp stoves and lanterns
#crossing our fingers that a tree doesn't fall and take out the cabin
#i'm sure some folks out there are like 'ugh californians are overreacting' but like
#we haven't had rain like this since 1847
#we don't have the infrastructure and also we've been in a drought for...idk like over a decade?
#we desperately need this rain but oof it's gonna be a time and a half in the process
#also our wildfires in the last few years have been so bad that whole swathes of land are still burnscars
#which means no vegetation to hold the ground together
#when you pair that with sudden heavy rain you get debris flows which can swallow roads and houses
#so like...it's A Lot of different things. not 'just' rain.
