Thousands Ordered To Evacuate After Oroville Dam Predicted To Fail

02/12/2017 9:26 PM

OROVILLE, CA --

Officials have ordered thousands of residents near the Oroville Dam to evacuate the area, saying a "hazardous situation is developing" after an emergency spillway severely eroded.
The Butte County Sheriff's Office says the emergency spillway could fail within an hour unleashing uncontrolled flood waters from Lake Oroville.

In this case, clear out the town folks now, and let in run. This is a no winner and no brainer.

Oh yes, and pray to God.
