For those wondering about the recent heavy rains in the west, going from drought to deluge in a few short months, here’s some data and history to illustrate that it is nothing new, and it has nothing to do with the claims of a “climate change” influence.

Before the industrial revolution, electricity, eight lane highways, and gas-guzzling SUV’s, there was a 43-day rainstorm that began in December 1861 that put central and southern California underwater for up to six months.

The highest rainfall ever in California during recorded history likely occurred in January 1862, during the “Great Flood”. This was an atmospheric river event like we are experiencing now, but lasted several days, dumping 24.63 inches of rain in San Francisco, 66 inches in Los Angeles, leaving downtown Sacramento underwater.

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA):

I agree.  I remember some of them, in the midwest.  I have pictures of SEARS roof totally laden with deep snow and someone shoveling the snow off the roof.  Route 30, Lincoln Highway,  being closed with so much snow on the roads!   
This is just weather! 

I wish they would drop that climate issue.  Young people get scared, not having lived through many cycles of WEATHER!
