New atmospheric river storm blasts ashore Sunday night

I am so grateful California is getting much needed rain! Hopefully they’re collecting it or people are out there with their own water storage units/buckets!

If your not working on saving and recycling all this free rain water then step down and I will do it - we will not sit and watch you waste resources doing nothing to save every drop every storm every year- get out of the way and let us end the drought since you won't😢😮

[@greghelton4668]

What exactly will you do?

[@Splib1]

Every river bed channel can be used to be the perfect catch of all trash and water from rain run off. In Los Angeles alone when winter storms come in Jan\Feb, the total volume of rain water fills the river beds to almost the top. Redesign the channels globally to catch all the rain water the earth provides for FREE. Duh! Make every continent with cities of the like catch all natures gift, instead of lazily desalinating the freaking oceans. The earth makes fresh water in rain, so collect it and use it. All areas of land need and should already have this in place. No water = no people. Buying it from other sources only wastes trees to print money for. Focus on the essential's of humanity's needs. Trap, pump, collect and treat every drop of water the skies deliver forever. End the droughts and be the example for all to follow. I seen it in 1978, at 12 years old, in South Gate, in the Rio Hondo river bed behind my house. I went out to see it, it was lightly raining at the time, the water was about a foot or two from the top, nearly over flowing. If I knew then what I know now I would have taken pictures, as it dumps into the main LA river, just a quarter mile down the way. No car then, so I missed seeing the convergence and how full the LA riverbeds were that day, a regret for sure. I remember telling my pops about it and seeing it from the upstairs bedroom window, then walked over to where I could see it closer. It was mind boggling and mesmerizing to see. I got curious and decided to go measure the river bed, pre-google, when it was dry. I did guess at the depth and side angles, but I did step-measure the bottom and the sides. Trying to figure the volume and guessed the MPH\Kph of the flow when full. Raging and roaring brown water racing past with debris in it and was wondering about of where it's going and how much it was. The volume of wasted water is near the trillions mark, per rain storm. 2-4 storms a winter, a disgusting waste of water. Now it's 2020 and the wasted water has got to be near a quadrillion gallons or so. It was finished built in 1960, so 18 years of wasted water before I was conscious of it and another 42 winters until today. 60 years of water the city could have used. This could have saved the city from trucking in the water from the Colorado. Use the water, remove and recycle the debris. Now fire and drought riddled So Cal is badly in need of a vision to help out. We need to use the LA River or one like it as a test zone for the entire planet. If global warming is a thing and more severe weather is coming, in the form of rains, it's time to redesign it and all like it, to catch, clean and save every drop. We probably have the technology to do so or to do better. If we effort it seriously, I am sure there's someone out there that could design it to filter the water collected right back into the ground water while it's raining. To me, I see how, so simple really. Stop the water from flowing at the exit points in Long Beach and Seal Beach for the San Gabriel riverbed channel after cleaning out all the trees and plant growth, also sealing the entire floor area that's not for natural ground water seepage. Clean them up with the intention to make it as sterile as possible. Use locks like the Panama Canal, with side wall and or floor pump intakes with grates and clean outs to drain it when it's full. We could even rebuild many of the bridges center and side supports, as a dual purpose lock and support, where they can be designed to open and close and still support the bridges. Trap and or divert the water in a place more feasible along the 52 mile water shed to lessen the run of pumping long distances, like instead of from Long Beach to Arroyo Dam, have a few of them or one per each city or district instead of just one large facility. Create a loop like a swimming pool or water slide filtering system or just holding tank to treat it after and then either use, store or return it to ground water. The excess reusable water will be so great the water prices will drop to free and we'll have provided the future with fresh water always for southern CA. and everywhere. Each city with such watershed channels will be the supplier of all water to even the driest of places and no longer be dry. We could refill most lakes and reservoirs back to the level of 50 or 100 years ago, to end droughts permanently. Even when it's not raining in the summer, every drop can be collected as well. Daily waste with just the trickle it constantly has is a huge volume of water too. We could build a containment lock near the end of the paved main channels for this water too, let it fill monthly and pump it back to treat also. Close the main channels' mouth to the oceans with locks and elsewhere along the way, as not to build up speed and let all the river bed channels fill up, by slowing the water flow to a dead stop. Use a water level float sensor to kick on the pumps and pump it out. Hopefully the walls will hold the water long enough to pump out without collapsing, as they are now 80 years old, and if not then repair them so they can. This also prevents overflowing the channels or a collapse, remember Katrina and New Orleans, learn from that and avoid being the second city to fail its people. The heavy debris will settle and the water above can be pumped off and piped up back to the dams or holding tanks to reverse osmosis treat or better. Pump it back to the dams with pipes either along the top walk path or along the out side of the walls of the channel or reuse a portion of the city's street drains to the riverbeds in reverse, back to the dams. We'll have to build pumping stations and remodel sections of the channels for the pump intakes with grates and screens so only water gets in the return pipes. Either dig routes for new pipes for the returns or devise a reuse of the storm drains already under ground. Create a new holding site, like out in Lancaster or Edwards Air Force base area or where ever is the most logical point(s) along side their lengths. Turn it into a new water holding reservoir to treat the dirty water. The more intelligent in the field of water management should be able to determine the methodology, that's why they have their college degrees on their walls. Every debris trap can be cleaned out after and this stops all the debris from the river beds, run off and blow in from ever making it to the ocean, saving marine life from pollution and no more plastic guyers in any ocean ever again. When the storm passes and all the water is pumped out, reopen the locks and clean up. Lots of new jobs for volunteers. As the years go on less and less debris will be in the channels. As for the daily 204M gallons, build a special section to collect and pump without having to close he flood gates at the harbor mouths. Divert it somewhere closer to mid channel and process it daily. This way there is no more center channel algae growth to be a breeding ground for water borne disease viruses like Covid. I am sure some engineers could find a way to even filter and or chlorinate the daily water to be sanitized before filling a mid channel holding reservoir. Recycle as much of the trash, debris and water as possible. Make the river beds so nothing can get in, but water. Improve street and elsewhere screens and grates. If someone gets into the full of water channels they can climb right out, as the water isn't flowing, it's just like a pool, just build swim outs, steps and hand rails along the sides. No more putting other lives in danger trying to save someone. If we're gonna do something to leave behind for future humans, this should be it, get on it already. Don't let another winter's rain water pass. Humans of the future will have so much fresh water they wont have to buy bottled water ever again. Thank you for your time and consideration. RDM
