  1. @CrazyAsian1 Actually, we are quite used to powerful storms. This winter caused mammoth to be the snowiest place on the entire continent. Including all of the great lakes, Canada, Alaska, Mount Washington, and Greenland. The rainfall we had in 24 hours compared to other states is the fourth highest 24 hour record of rainfall in the nation. Including higher than Florida’s and only surpassed by Texas, Alabama, and Hawaii. The golden gate itself was even designed to deal with hurricane force winds which it generally does. We deal with both dry Diablo and Santa Ana winds and powerful wet winter winds. We are just dealing with this during the summer and with warm weather rather than in the winter and cooler weather that we are used to.

  2. Things are very different in California. We have almost unparalleled attention to the coast as we get power storms in winter generally.

  3. Unfortunately due to other influences like monsoonal moistures from other locations and the topography of the area, it is one of the places to be barder hit.

  4. Though if you are farther northeast, then it won’t be as bad.

  5. @robguanakiyo Depends on where that terrain is. In places that are not as sedimental, then it isn’t a major risk. Especially as our higher ground is also rich in vegetation which holds any loose sentiment better. Also unlike Florida, our higher ground and more varied topography makes draining easier and to more easily get higher ground. We also have far more stable ground where we don’t get as many sinkholes as Florida does.

  6. Where is the poop? I literally have never found human poop on any side walk in either LA or San Francisco. I smelled urine near Skid Row, but no poop. I literally have even looked for it.

  7. @Ransomhandsome  By who? Show me. I have seen trash there and like one place with a full bin of animal waste with trash falling out. Other than that, literally nothing and I’ve been to nearly every part of that city. It is the cleanest big city I have ever been to.

  8. Like whether a storm strikes even matters for this outcome in the second largest city in the entire country.
