California Atmospheric River 2024 - Flooding and landslides in Los Angeles - 4k

A massive Atmospheric River slammed #california with heavy #rain causing widespread #flooding. The first major storm of #2024 for the state caused widespread #landslide and #flood in #losangeles metro. The massive #winter #storm also brought high #hurricane force #wind to the central valley.
#drone #video of landslides were shot in #beverlyhills #studiocity #encino #losangeles and the #santamonica #mountains
The #dust storm, tumbleweed and wind shots were from Grapevine, CA and impacted #travel blowing over several #tractor #trailers #trucks
Water Rescue from #firstresponders was shot in #ventura on the Ventura River.
The #aerialfootage shots of the Los Angeles River is from Compton.
The #cars stalled in high flood waters was from Los Angeles.

Why do they build on unstable cliffs? Hopefully the insurance companies charge extra for houses built in the path of mudslides.

[@thearmourboy3254]

You can tell so many of these places were built with zero concern for water run off. They just stuck them on a hill and called it good.

[@direwolf6234]

where were the soils engineering reports and local reviews ??

[@videorocketzmillar007milla5]

Cal OSHA always tells city officials not to build in soft soils. City officials over ride the recommendations. OSHA signs off and throws up their hands. Home owners believe real estate agents. Must do your homework check soil samples hire surveyor. Dont buy if not on bedrock.... got fired as I was honest county worker. They did me a favor

[@MW-pt9dg]

I am sorry you were fired. OSHA should not sign off and throw up their hands. One purpose of OSHA is to be deterrent of building where not safe, to say No when no is necessary. But I know, many of these builders are not used to hearing No.

[@MW-pt9dg]

If home owners start to Successfully sue homebuilders for Not building on bedrock, then the builders will start to listen to OSHA.

[@Peacefulhome894]

Very sorry for see the damages for the homeowners. I wonder how they are going to recover and recoup from it since I have heard insurance does not cover flood damage like this. It's worrisome as it looks like extreme weather is becoming more and more frequent.

[@GrannySmith123]

They neglect infrastructure needs while adding millions of people, homes, businesses. No new reservoirs in over 30 years. Rivers and creeks are going to run their natural course....

[@WxChasing]

They will recover quickly, the real estate value in the area is so high that it makes sense financially. Insurance is hit or miss between flood and fire risk so much will be out of pocket expense.

[@antoniahamilton3201]

That's the tragedy for the stricken homeowners here. Probably 99% don't have coverage for this act of nature,

[@direwolf6234]

a mudslide is not a flood .. if you live on an unstable hillside you don't buy flood insurance ...

[@alllifematters]

And it's going to come faster and faster than they even think because every devastation takes more of things like the Earth's trees and trees are amazing how they keep the earth cool. They hold lots of water in their roots as well as the leaves and they distribute the water to other plants that need it... But like in Oregon, they allow corporations to go in and cut huge huge clear cuts and now with the fires.. the other thing trees do is protect rivers and streams from the hot sun so they don't dry up 👍 and now they replant these huge clear cut areas with gmo trees and they have no protection from drought because the big old trees are the protectors of young trees but there aren't any old trees just kindling on them hills waiting to burn

[@calidebs950]

You really captured the destruction in our area. It's still raining. I have seen the destruction when I had to travel the canyons when I worked in the Miracle Mile. It's positively trencherous to try to get to work when you have to travel through any of the canyons. Thank you for the footage.

[@WxChasing]

Thank you Calidebs. Yes, those canyons can rip.

[@williamlockard8191]

I have a feeling that insurance is going to be harder to find in California in the days to come.

[@rkevic]

i wonder if it rained a bit harder, will those canyon streets look like actual raging rivers.

[@WxChasing]

It rained a lot snd for a long period. However, the rainfall rates were not unusually heavy. I can’t imagine what it would look like if a 1.5”/hr thunderstorm hit on the tail end of a rain event like that.

[@sharongoodsell9341]

[@WxChasing]

We really wanted to stop and hit some of the side roads but it is so tight we did not want to get in the way of those cleaning up. Thankfully we did not see any really large slides that could have happened. That area is so nice on the good days but it sure has a dark side when the rain gets heavy.

[@air4334]

How does one rebuild from this disaster ? Good video .

[@WxChasing]

Thank you. Luckily only a few hones were total losses. For those, they probably wont rebuild. For the rest, they’ll get cleaned up, the washes will likely have hay rolls staked to prevent further erosion and hopefully vegetation can grow back before another big rain event.

[@boyanaskrbic]

​@@WxChasing In Chile, this winter, within a few days of each other we had these extreme rains twice. River floods that covered homes and agricultural land .

Abstract : The energy that dominates the earth is very great, some of it is natural, like the heat of the sun and volcanoes, and some of it is human action, by cutting down trees, without replacing them and cultivating in their place... There are five forces that control or dominate the planet... 1- The first theory (horizontal dynamic movement) and its end... The occurrence of storms, rain, floods and snow, at unexpected times and places, is because of the expiration of this theory, which needs to be balanced... 2- The second theory (vertical dynamic movement) and its end... This movement or force controls or dominates the earthquakes, earth cracks, drying up of rivers and lakes, earth openings, mountain collapses, and the emergence of drinking water springs on the ground... It becomes out of control... These phenomena increased due to the end of this theory... The third theory: it is water that rotates the earth... The fourth theory: the Earth's axis of rotation has tilted 2° degrees... The fifth theory: The Earth has a new orbit... These studies had completed and sent on July 26th 2000 YOUSIF A TOBIYA
